Boring to bedazzled: Hairbrush make over

You're probably reading this title like what the fudge is this chick on about? But I swear its not as weird as you think! My hair brush broke the other day so my mum got me another one and it was black and so boring. I am obsessed with sparkles and gems so a boring rainy day with a boring hair brush and some sparkles I set to work on making my hairbrush a little less dull. So here is what I did:

Take one very boring, plain hairbrush, some clear nail varnish, superglue, tweezers, sparkly gems and a tray so you don't stick anything to the table! 


Step 1: Draw your design on with clear nail varnish to use as a template.


Step 2: Apply superglue on a few centre meters of the design


Step 3: Use tweezers to pick up sparkly gems and place them on the area you have just superglued.
Step 4: Continue super glueing small sections of the design and sticking the gems down. 


Step 5: (optional) Once your main design is finished feel free to go a bit crazy to create a very bedazzled hairbrush! 










The finished bedazzled hairbrush!
My hairbrush is from tesco, as is the superglue. 
The gems are from amazon.co.uk
Let me know if you have/do anything similar or creative!
