I found some wooden numbers on clearance a while back, and grabbed some up without a real idea of what I would use them for. I was vaguely thinking maybe some decor for Kieran's room, since he is very into counting. When unpacking after the move I caught sight of the 2 and the 5 together and had one of those aha moments: 25...December 25th aha!
This is a super simple project. The longest part is waiting for everything to dry. So that you can take pretty photos to post online.
1. Remove tags and hooks/string if necessary (or keep the strings if you want to hang these).
2. Paint numbers with gold craft paint
3. Before the paint dries, quickly sprinkle all over with gold glitter
Wait impatiently for the paint to dry.
As they say here "et voila!"
You can use wooden or paper mache numbers (or letters!) for this craft, and change up the colours of paint and glitter to match your holiday decor.
I'm not sure where this will go yet, I love them so much they might stay in my office!
