FloraCraft Glitter Spray Review

Move over Martha Stewart here we come. The holidays bring out an inner craft person in all of us and suddenly we find ourselves frantically searching Pinterest for our next big project. I know firsthand that there is no project that cannot benefit from a little, or a lot of glitter. 

I have often ran with the idea that if a little glitter is good than a lot of glitter is better.  This applies to a many things in my life, but then that is a story for another day.

The search for the right glitter started at the local Walmart where I found Glitter Glue manufactured by Horizon Group. They had colors specific to Christmas, such as red, green, and silver. I choose the green as a test subject for my particular craft idea. See my review of the glitter glue HERE. While I was there I spotted a can of spray glitter from FloraCraft and thought, hmm what could be better than a glitter spray.

My test subjects were some origami ornaments made from old book pages. I liked the way they looked plain but knew a little sparkle would make them pop.

I used the spray glitter first. It was a multi-colored glitter spray in Iridescent Christmas colors, which would match the rest of my decorations. The label said it had a low odor but I took it outside just to be safe.  The smell of the spray was not too bad but I would still recommend using it in a well-ventilated area. I sprayed it liberally on my project and stepped back to admire the results. Nothing is what I saw, hardly any sparkle at all. What a disappointment. 

Can you see the glitter? Me neither. Wait I think there might be a slight glissen or not.

I then decided to let it dry thinking that the sparkle would suddenly appear during the drying process. No such luck. I literally could barely see any glimmer at all even on close inspection.

Still nothing, I had to add more glitter to make me happy. You can see that picture below.

  I would not buy this product again because there was no real difference between before spraying and after. The label said Fun Spray Glitter, but all I got out of this product was a waste of time and money. The 3.45 oz. can was about $6 of which is money that I will never see again.

I had to use glitter and white glue to get the pop I was really looking for. I think it looks pretty good.
