Pretty Ceramic Hanging Hearts

Store your markers horizontally (flat) and always replace the cap immediately after using, even if you are just taking a short break. This will stop the ink from drying out.
Step 1Sketch out your design onto a piece of paper before you start to decorate your ceramic heart. Once you have a design, transfer it lightly onto the heart using a pencil or free hand your design if you feel confident.
For less glitter wastage, use a scrap piece of paper folded in half to catch the glitter fall-ing off the heart while decorating. This will make it easy to tip the excess glitter back into the container ready to reuse!
Step 2Shake your markers well before use.
Step 3Press the tip of your marker gently & repeatedly to start the ink flow. Do this on some scrap paper, you may need to repeat this step each time you use your markers to get the ink flowing!
Step 4Apply your design to a clean dry surface.
Step 5Allow your design to dry for a minimum of 24 hours.
Step 6To add extra sparkle, apply glue to your heart. While the glue is still wet, sprinkle on glitter.
