Once Upon a Time

I finally made the wand that I had sitting around for the longest time.

                 (click on photo to enlarge)

I started with just a paper mache wand like this one:




That I had purchased at a craft store many moons ago.




Covered the star with glue.




Then dipped the star in silver glass glitter.




Once it dried, I wrapped the wand with some beautiful silver ribbon.




I still envision adding more ribbons and decor at the base of the star.



But for now, it still made for a beautiful photo.


We are all joining in the fun over at Beverly's "Pink Saturday" Party. 



 
 
 

I am also joining Cindy's "Show and Tell Friday".

When I taught first grade we always started our day with star pointers to add a wee bit of magic to our school day, very similar to yours. Pretty, and it brings back sweet memories. ♥♫

Such a cute wand and the vignettes with the dance slippers are really pretty. Seems like a fun project and pretty easy - maybe even I could do it. One day hopefully I might get a granddaughter to play with. : )
