I went to Michaels to see if I could find anything to use and they had these wooden rings for only $1.49 each. Perfect!
First thing I did was paint the rings with my Venetian Gold craft paint and let them dry.
I wanted to attach an acorn to each ring so I went to Hobby Lobby to get a hot glue gun. Then while standing there with a glue gun in my hand I saw these glue dots so I bought them instead.
Best decision I ever made. These were so easy to use and no burned fingers. Just place the glue dot on the ring and then stick the acorn on and done.
Simple and cheap and love the look.
Kim these were darling and I remember them well! They are perfect. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love these! I've never used the glue dots before. Think I'll be trying them soon!
