How to glue rhinestones to a metal bangle Ready to show off your patriotic spirit? Don’t have anything patriotic to wear? No problem we got you covered! Follow our simple instructions to learn how to make your own one of a kind patriotic bracelet. For this project I used: 1 metal bangle 12ss Light Siam, Crystal and Sapphire rhinestones E6000 adhesive Wax tipped tool After measuring out the length of the bracelet, I decided I wanted to do 3 rhinestones of each color. I located the center and started with the crystal rhinestone. E6000 tends to be sort of gloppy so when I use E6000, I squeeze a bit over a paper plate and then scrape a small amount of glue with a toothpick. I then apply this glue onto the surface of the metal bangle. Using the wax tipped tool, pick up a rhinestone and gently press it into the glue. Continue gluing rhinestones around the bracelet and then allow to dry for 24 hours. Fun , fashionable, and patriotic. This bracelet is perfect to wear anytime not just for the Fourth of July.

How to embellish jeans with fabric paint and rhinestones Do you live in your jeans? When you go out do you want to look fabulous in jeans but are unable to afford those pricey embellished jeans? You can easily and inexpensively transform a plain pair of jeans into a dazzling pair. For this project I used: A pair of jeans White fabric paint Paint brush Light Topaz 20ss Rhinestones Gem Tac Wax tipped tool You can paint the daisies freehand or you can use a template. I like to use a template which I cut out of heavy cardstock. Squeeze your white fabric paint in a shallow paint dish. Lay the template flat along one side of the jeans. With a sponge brush, dab white paint on the jeans. I painted six daisies on one side and one daisy on the other side. If you like more daisies, move the template lower along the pant leg and paint more. Allow to dry completely. When the paint is completely dry, place a drop of glue slightly smaller than the rhinestone in the middle of a white daisy. With a wax tipped tool, pick up a rhinestone and gently press it into the glue. Repeat for all the daisies. Allow to dry flat for 24 hours. Sassy yet, stylish, you’ll love your new jeans!
