A Guide To Making Rhinestone Sliders

By Georgia Diaz


When one would have a classy event like an anniversary or a birthday party, he would definitely want his invitation to be equally as classy. Aside from a nice design or some fancy handwriting, another way to make it look classy would be to tie a ribbon on the front with some rhinestone sliders on it. By putting a slider, the invite itself will look more beautiful because of the shiny little thing.

Now it is very easy to make this thing and at the same time it is also very cheap because the materials are also cheap. As for the materials, one would only need three primary things that will help him get started. Basically, these things are rhinestones, sliders, and super glue.

The first step in this entire process would be to make sure that the slider is clean and shiny before anything else. Things like vinegar or rubbing alcohol may be used in order to bring back the shine to the slider. Thoroughly clean it before going on to the very next step.

It is very important to be very cautious with this type of glue simply because it is very harmful to the skin. Also, when it is applied on something, it will really stick until it would be almost impossible to come off. That is why there are a lot of people who would opt to wear some rubber gloves so that the glue does not stick to the hand.

One must first put some super glue on to the sliders and then take some of the rhinestones with a pair of tweezers. It is in this stage that one will actually be able to produce more creative juices and let his imagination run wild. He may decide to put a lot of rhinestones as he wants or maybe even just a little bit.

If one would want, he could actually apply some shiny paint on the empty parts of the slider in order for it to look nicer. However, if he would decide to do this, then he has to make sure that he does not apply too much as it will not look nice. When that is done, he should add some spray seal to keep the paint there and let it dry.

Finally, the last thing to do would be to get a piece of ribbon and put the slider on it. Now it is best to use sliders like these with ribbons that are the colors pink, blue or green. One may even use them for other colors like gold or even certain shades of the color white.

Now if one would want to invite guests to his formal party or event, then try making an invite that has a ribbon with a slider on it. Rhinestone sliders will definitely make the invite look more classy. Because of this, guests will definitely be excited to see what kind of event or party will transpire simply because of the beautiful invite.
