DIY Glitterizer

Ever heard of a glitterizer? It's a thing that Sassy Pants picked up with birthday money that had Barbie's name all over it. What you do is put glitter in the bottom, use a sticker on your Barbie whatever, stick it in the wardrobe looking cabinet and pushing the button which activates a little fan and blows glitter all over the item in question. The glitter sticks to the sticker, the item, everything within 10 feet of the glitterizer, and everything the item touches. If you've ever wanted to glitterize a house, but weren't sure how to go about, a friend of mine told me a story as to how you might accomplish this.

He had gone home the other day and found his eighteen year old daughter was going to paint with glitter. She has an artist friend who had done this by putting a little glitter in some water to dash up a painting or project or whatever with some shine, so she was trying it. Well, in the course of doing this, she managed to spill the glitter in her room. As any teacher of the very young will tell you, this isn't a problem as long as you nip that mess as soon as it happens and before it spreads, because everyone knows that glitter is a virus. And this glitter wasn't that cheap, hard metal stuff. This was the ultra fine glitter that you can get in your hair just by walking past the aisle containing it at Hobby Lobby.

Well, it was not duly nipped before their dog found his way into the bedroom and took it upon himself to roll around in the glitter. Now you have a glitter dog. Barbie would be proud, princesses all over are squealing in delight, and parents are praying that no one tries to do this on purpose. It gets better.

Where do dogs go? If you said everywhere, you would be correct. Guess where the glitter went? Did you say everywhere? You are so clever. This guy had glitter from one side of his house to the other by virtue of the dog making his rounds all over the house. This stuff is never going to come out of every nook and cranny it found its way into no matter what he does. He figures there is only one way to get to a glitter free house after all this.

Sell the house. I figure the least he could do is paint it pink first.
