DIY Sparkly Ducks

When I find things on Pinterest that seem like an easy enough craft, I jump ALL in. Thankfully, Dane understands this and keeps a large amount of patience in his back pocket when he comes home and there is glitter spray paint all over our garage.

This is me:

In any case, I’m helping a friend host a baby shower in a couple weeks and wanted to take the traditional “rubber ducky” to a whole ‘nother level.

DIY Sparkly Ducks

You Will Need:
plain rubber ducks (as many as you want!)
gold spray paint
glitter spray paint

OR

adhesive spray
loose gold glitter

*I will give full disclosure that these ducks would be MUCH CUTER with the second option, but finding loose gold glitter proved to be more difficult than expected. Hawaii has ONE craft store and it’s not a Michael’s. Believe me, I KNOW…

Anyway.

Step 1: Arrange ducks on an old Victoria’s Secret catalog, so you don’t get your garage floor messy.

Step 2: Spray the ducks with the plain gold metallic spray paint.

Step 3: Let the ducks dry overnight. Spray with glitter spray! 

 I wanted my ducks to be more glittery, so I waited another day and sprayed them with more glitter!

And while they are definitely very shimmery, I wanted the cool hard glitter look, which is why I recommend buying spray adhesive and sprinkling them with loose glitter! In any case, I think they turned out pretty well and I’m excited to use them at my friend’s shower 🙂
