10 Dec – Make glitter not war!

Nobel invented dynamite and gala dinners. Fuldesign’s studio Fulhålet is situated closer than a kilometer from Stockholm’s concert hall where the price ceremony has taken place this afternoon. There is still a major traffic chaos outside due to all the security around the event. We are celebrating here as well in Fulhålet by making glitter soldiers. They are a Fuldesign classic which we are now sharing. It’s also a direct message to Obama “Make glitter not war”. We’re eating cookies too, we have some cookiemonsters left and they are a great snack when crafting.

1. You need glitter, clothes pegs crocodile style, small plastic bags, glue gun, glue spray and toy soldiers. You also need a cardboard box where you glue.

2. Pour the glitter into the plastic bag.

3. Put the soldiers in the box.

4. Spray them  all over with glue spray

5. Carefully put them in the plastic bag with glitter.

6. Hold the opening shut and shake.

7. Repeat until all the soldiers glitter.

8. Pour the left over glitter back into the bag and save.

9. Heat up the glue gun and push out a good string of glue onto one peg.

10. Take a soldier and press it firmly on to the peg and hold until the glue sets.

11. One soldier finished, let it dry for an hour.

12. They look great in the Christmas tree.
