Supplies:

• PVA glue
• sequins
• ribbon or cord for hanging
• plastic lid
• cocktail stick to help arrange the sequins and to make a hole

 

 

 

Steps:

1. Pour plenty of PVA glue into the lid.

 
2. Sprinkle on a selection of sequins. You can use your cocktail stick to arrange them a bit.

 

 
3. Leave to dry. This could take days, or even a week or so. Be patient.
4. Once the glue is completely dry release it from the lid.

5. Don't make the mistake I made. My lid had a sell by date on it which transferred to the sun catcher. But not to worry. It's not that obvious.

 

 
6. Make a hole with a hole punch or a cocktail stick.

 
7. Tie a cord through the hole.

 
8. Hang your suncatcher in the window and watch it sparkle and shine.

You can usually get the printed sell-by date and other info off with a drop of dish detergent and a little rubbing. If that doesn't work, try a little rubbing alcohol.

A third way might be a drop of vegetable oil and a little rubbing, or vegetable oil and a little baking soda as a mild abrasive. As a last resort, try WD-40.
