It took about an hour. I still need to fill in with the tiny 2mm ones. Unless you stare at it you can't see where the holes are, but I can so...

 

I started at the bottom corner and just filled in. The blue stones were really randomly placed as I went along. THe good thing about the glue was that it stayed wet for a little while so I could move things around if I didn't like them. I'd say work on a flat surface with some kind of paper underneath you and have a pair of tweezers handy. I just poured everything out in front of me and went for it with no plan! LOL! I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out!

I think it depends on what look you are going for. The smaller crystals will look more uniform, but will take much longer. If you go with the bigger ones (anything 8mm or larger) I think will it will still look really nice, its just that you will be able to see the individual crystals more. So if you do larger you definitely want to make sure that the lines you create are straight.

Those are absolutely beautiful!!! Can you tell me where you purchased your items and how did you use the glitter as a filler? I am hoping to make my topper also with Swarovskis and I like the idea of the glitter as well. Great job!!!

Thank you!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
