You can color it with any ink refill, water colors, food coloring or acrylic paint. That way you can use white and gold Dollar Tree eye shadow for the mica. Use white with any color and gold with warm colors. That way you don't have to search for special colors. When I make things from scratch I like to get neutral ingredients and color with what I have. That way all the elements of my projects match and you have more options. Love the video!

WOW! Both of these glitter pastes you made are absolutely gorgeous. I especially love the 2nd one with the Glitter Mod Podge in it because it looks slightly thicker than the other one you made, and the really expensive one that you bought. I've got all the ingredients for making this glitter paste and it's a great way to use glitter without it flying around everywhere, as glitter has a tendency to do! Thank you for sharing this great recipe for glitter paste. Love from Amanda in Australia

I feel the same way about KZfaq. I love learning. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful. I love this. Thank you.😊💛

Great video, thanks for sharing, I like them both too. Great stuff.

Thank you so much! I love this! Especially because: I just bought three L. A. Colors loose eyeshadows for another project; I'm watching your video over 3.5 years after you posted it, and Dollar Tree just started carrying Aleene's clear gel Tacky Glue! I've recently bought two jars of BoBunny Glitter Paste, and one Stencil Paste at Tuesday Morning. I think they were $4.00/each. I've been afraid to use them, because I didn't want to "have to" buy more. I will always make them, from now on. Thank you for your kindness.

This is an awesome video. I have been trying to decide which recipe to use. Thank you!

Thank you so much for telling me how to make my own glitter paste I use mod podge and red glitter and it came out beautiful I have a bunch of stencils so I'm going to have some fun stenciling with this new method

Remember the first one you made just had glitter. The second one with the Mod Podge already had glitter in the version you bought AND mica. LA Colors “loose eye shadow” is available at dollar stores. Mica in it with the glitter is going to make a HUGE difference. At Michaels or JoAnnes they sell ultra fine glitter.

Wow! They are all beautiful! I like the gold looking glitter. Awesome tutorial! Big thumb up! 😊 Yeah...home made is the way 2 go. 😍

Thank You for sharing,I love crafting but lost my job 2 years ago and not quite retirement age yet sooo on a very tight budget these will help alot

Thanks for sharing. The examples are gorgeous!

Bobbie`s Creations and More I wanted to make this and I had a formula in mind and you confirmed my theory :)) Thank you so very much. I think the prizes of most products for crafters are perverse. I make as much as I can myself and I can only confirm your statement: "Thanks to all you KZfaqrs" for sharing your knowledge and thereby making us all a bit smarter :) THANK YOU and Advent greetings from Slovenia :)

Eye shadow...works well in place of glitter

SO PRETTY ….THANK YOU ❤❤❤❤❤

What a wonderful comparison. You did a great job. Thank you so much. I am glad I found you. Hugs, Bobbi

Great tip, thank you!

fabulous great idea cheap and cheerful thank you

This is a great video. Awesome. Thank you so much

Love it. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the info & experiment!! I’ll be making my own too!!

Thank you so much for making this video!

Thanks so much! Can’t wait to try this! :)

Thanks for sharing👌👌👍😘

Thank you for trying them and doing the comparison, your generosity got you a new subscriber 😊. I am wanting to try this and the gulding wax as they're both beautiful but expensive.

Love it! Thank you.

i enjoyed watching this video and learning new things

I agree. it is fabulous. Great idea and much cheaper. Thank you.

Thanks so much for sharing your findings.

Cool, good idea for things I want to do for Christmas Ornaments.

Bobbie great idea Thanks for Sharing!

There both very nice

Love it!! Tfs!! I also like using the L.A. Colors eye shadow to make shimmer sprays and wink of stella. I just pop open the eye shadow container and make what I need!! 😊

Awesome! thanks for sharing ..I'm so glad, i come across your channel.

I feel the same way about KZfaq I’ve learned so much with all the videos thank you for sharing

That was so sparkly and shiney! Gorgeous x2!! Lol! Thanks for sharing! #YOUROCK #m3glamsquad 👑

BRAVO! IT IS GREAT!

Pretty!!

Thank you for sharing

The blue one is stunning 😍

Love this

What a great idea, sorry about those people that don't like what you have done, but I love it.

The fastest and the cheapest way to make this is with any fine glitter, pigment, or eye shadow and a glue stick. Just mix it together and there you have it.

Hi Bobbie , ty for sharing this awesome techinc. hope u have bless and crafty day of it . :):):):):):):)♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Cool ideas!

Thank you Bobbie for sharing your video

Great video. This is my 2nd video for making glitter/glimmer paste, the other one I watched is from Sasha Reade & she uses Tacky glue(from Tonic studios, but as long as it’s pretty thick, will work & used mica powder, or eye shadow). I can’t wait to try all of them!

excellent vid,, thanks

Wow how cool is this......i already have mod podge tacky glue and glitter....i'm good to go. Thanks so much for the tips, i shall get back to you on my findings. Also try Alovera and eye shadow, have not tried this myself but saw it on youtube. x

I make my own paste it’s amazing

Hi Bobbie, Scot,and calling. Loving your videos . Have subscribed . You are so right about the price for glu and glitter, really pricey. ❤️

Is the "gel" hair styling gel?

Gracias!!!🥰🙏🙏🙏

Thanks...seems to me you could use clear Elmer's glue for a cheaper alternative!

I liked both of the colours you made. I could have fun trying these with mixed media projects. I’ve never seen the LA items at the Canadian Dollar Tree or Dollarama. We get ripped off in the Canadian stores. 😢

Lovely

what are the LA colors? is it eyeshadow?

I know. When I received the butter paste i was shocked to see a tiny bottle for a large price. Never again, if I can’t make it myself, I’m not buying’ it!! So thank you, I’ll make my own!!!😊

Thank you so much

Great ty

You can even go to the next level and make your own texture paste which is cheap and easy all it is is 1 cup of baby powder 1/2 cup of school glue and 1/2 cup of acrylic paint you add more powder to get the consistency you prefer then add your glitter

good stuff. xx

Does this need to be kept in an airtight container or will any container with a lid work? Great video by the way. I love the side by side comparison between the 2 methods. Thank you.

Just cuz u asked, 50ml is almost 2oz. Thanks for this video! Very helpful!

I like the eyeshadow one better but i think it would look just as good if u used it with the heavy gel instead of glitter. Thank u so much for sharing i love bonunny but have never bought any bc of the price

You can buy mica from soap making suppliers! Way cheaper and many, many colors in bulk.

i think, It's pretty cool , if you want to make a custom-made colors. Because the supplies to make it are bit expensive. Mod podge $ 4.00 with coupon, tacky glue $ 4.00 with coupon, eye shadow $1.00 , fine glitter, it run$ 2.00 to $ 3.00 each depending how many colors I want to mix. It comes out to $15.00 using 50% coupons might be a 2.00 more with 40 % coupon for 1. Then second one different color it would $8.00.

I’m definitely gonna try to make my own! I have a ton of ultra fine glitter and I never use it because of the mess it makes. Does it dry out in the jar? Was wondering about that. Thanks for the info!

Excellent video! Thank you hon x Watching all the way in LONDON ENGLAND. Thumbs up! .... (watching March 15th 2018)

Where did you get your stencil? It is better than most of the ones I've seen. I bought some glitter and heavy gel, and some stencils. I can't wait to try it! Thanks for sharing your results. Very informative video!

Do I understand it correctly that in the 1st example, you used only glitter and Liquitex? So the glitter made the color of the paste?

Thank you, loved the video, if I don't have tacky glue what can I use insted.

These look amazing. Do you think it might work with PVA glue and glitter?

one ounce is 30ml

This is awesome! I don't have the heavy gel and it is way out of my budget but I do have reg. mod podge without sparkle will that work? or should I add some super fine glitter to it? TFS...

love them, sadly I cant buy the LA eyeshadow colors in my area.

THANK YOU!! I just watched a tutorial with nouveau glitter/glimmer paste, it was $7.19 for 1 ounce! I don’t know where they come up with these prices? Everyone wants us crafty people to be able to make things and use their products, but they charge $7.19 for a glue and glitter?? Crazy!!! I’m definitely going to be trying this! Question was the Liquitex just a medium gel? And where did you get it at Michael’s? Did you prefer one over the other?Thank you so much Liz😊💗👍🏼Cape Cod Massachusetts

How do I keep pastes soft? Once hard what can I use to soften dried out paste?

Does this work on metal items like mirrors, or wooden picture frames? These homemade ones don't seem to have the same effect or staying power.

hiya, can i ask you a question, does the glitter dry embedded and not flake off when you rub it, or does it still come off when you rub it with your finger, hope i make sense. please let me know (hugs) Diana x

I want to try this, as I live in UK I can get modpog but will have to look for a tacky clear glue. Thanks

Thanks for sharing where to find stencil

Awesome Thanks So Much yeah I can't afford the Glimmer Pastes so I'm definitely trying this - Anne Sydney Australia

both great , but the mod poge is more sparkly as you had sparkle in the mod podge

Can you use mica powder instead of eyeshadow?

nice

What stencil did you use in this video project?

how to thin them if they feel to thick

How much LA Color do you use?

I can't understand what you are saying when you mention product LA (?). What is the full name of this LA product?

Are thesse not for cosmetic use ?

Tfs :) x

But how did they dry?

28 ml is 1 oz, so that container is about 2 ounces.

50 ml is 1.759 oz-- still is way to expensive for me. Thanks for the recipe!

You can use tacky glue in place of that gel medium

THINK ABOUT IT, IT'S JUST LIKE FROM OUR SCHOOL DAYS, GLITTER GLUE. RIGHT...

50ml is 1.6 ounces

15 ml is half ounce

50ml is almost 2 oz. 60ml = 2 oz
