Glitter

Glitter is more technical than it looks. Cheap glitter bleeds color when added to resin, uses PVC that discolors over months, or comes in inconsistent grain sizes that make finished pieces look cluttered instead of sparkly. Every jar in this collection is tested for color fastness, consistent particle size, and cure compatibility with common craft mediums. Grade matters more than most makers realize. Ultra-fine glitter sits flat on smooth surfaces and works best for epoxy tumbler finishes and smooth nail art. Chunky glitter adds dimension to shakers, resin inclusion pieces, and accent accessories. Mixing grades in one product is often the difference between intentional design and visual chaos.

Storage matters more for glitter than for almost any other craft supply. Airtight containers only, and always double-check the lid is sealed before putting the container back on the shelf. Loose glitter escapes through any opening and ends up everywhere — on every surface, in every other project, on your clothes for weeks. Static makes it worse, especially in dry winter months. A single dropped container can contaminate a studio for months. Work on a contained tray or over a folded piece of paper you can funnel the excess back into the container. For resin pours, add glitter to a small portion of resin first, mix thoroughly, then add to the full batch to avoid clumping.
