DIY: Glitter Starbucks Tumbler

Glitter Starbucks tumbler y'all...

So after searching SEVEN Starbucks for the "make your own tumbler" I had given up! Until sweet Crystal told me that there were some at her work Starbucks! YAY! Apparently they have discontinued these tumblers so if you find some, buy them all. 

You Will Need:
-Starbucks tumbler (I got the "grande" size)
-Elmer's Adhesive Spray
-Glitter color of your choice, I bought a 4oz bottle and used MAYBE a quarter of it, so go smaller!
-painters tape to tape off the rim and top!

First I just gave them tumbler a good wash since once the glitter is applied I doubt I'll ever open it up and wash it again!

 This is the tumbler separated, you will only be using the inside part! 

 I used a paper towel and the painters tape to tape off the rubber part and where the grooves are to seal the cup, I didn't want glitter rubbing on the plastic, thats freaks me out! 

 Next just spray the cup in sections and add glitter! I dumped way too much glitter on and it was all clumpy so I just rolled the cup around in the glitter until it looked even all over! 
I also sprayed and glittered the bottom of mine!

After about 15 minutes remove the painters tape slowly! Shake off any excess glitter and then slide the inside back into the cup and seal it tight! No one wants to drink glitter!

The finished product:


This cute little project only took me about 15 minutes and I LOVE it! 
Such a simple little project, perfect for yourself or for a gift!
