Here’s How to Make Vintage Glass Glitter Christmas Pears!
After you have your Vintage Glass prepped in the color of your choice here’s what you’ll need to make Vintage Aqua Glass Glitter Christmas Pears.
Materials Needed:
- Vintage Glass Glitter, see how to make your own here.
- Faux Pears
- Glue or Mod Podge
- Paintbrush
- White/Creme Paint
Step 1 // You’ll want to paint the pears first with a white or creme paint color. This helps hide the original color so it doesn’t show though the glitter. Then let completely dry.
Step 2 // Next, apply glue or mod podge to the pears. Clear or white glue work fine since they both dry clear.
Step 3 // Next, sprinkle away with the Vintage Aqua Glass all over the pear.
Step 4 // Allow the pears to completely dry before using them as decor.
Here’s the after!
Aren’t these the cutest Christmas Pears? They’re perfect to use all over your home; table centerpiece, mantle decor, or even ornaments. Happy making and Merry Christmas!

Are you applying a thick layer of glue? I created some with purchased glass glitter, which is beautiful, and using mode podge, but I’m finding that many come off once handling them when dry. I’m worried about their longevity when packing them up each year. I am thinking of trying thicker layers of glue, but unsure of what else to try.
