Personalize it! Glittered Purse Hanger

Ever been out to a restaurant and find it hard to find a place to put your purse? The floor may be a little sketchy - the back of your seat isn't safe, and all the seats at the table are taken. These purse hangers are SO handy for just such an occassion. They make great gifts for teachers, co-workers, friends & family. Getting married? These are great for your bridesmaids.

You will need:
Blank Purse hangers - (I found these on Ebay, but I think Hobby Lobby carries something similar) Art Glitter Ultra Fine Glitter (any color), Globecraft Memories Glastique Gloss, Alphabet stickers - smaller than 1" in diameter.

Begin by putting a puddle (about the size of a quarter) of Glastique in the center of the purse hanger.

Add about 1/2 teaspoon of your favorite color of Art Glitter and carefully mix into the Glastique with a toothpick.

Use the toothpick to spread the glitter mixture evenly over the bottom of the purse hanger and set aside to dry.

Once dry, add desired letter sticker. Be sure to press it down completely so no air bubbles will form under it.

Add another layer of Glastique, completely filling the recessed area. Set aside to dry over night on a level surface. The thicker you apply the Glastique, the longer it will take to dry. It is set when it is completely clear.
