Superfine glitter...I got some!!

[smalljaw]

Well after searching for sometime I found it and of all places it was at Michaels. I originally went to Michaels and all they had was fashion glittler and body glitter and glitter for kids projets but today was a score! I went with my wife, both of us with 40% off coupons as I was going to stock up on some craft fur and maybe get some hackle( they have some real nice stuff there), and as I was getting the fur my wife told me to turn around and there it was, ArtMinds superfine glitter in emerald, aquamarine, chocolate, copperm ice silver, gold, onyx, and many others so just to try it I got the emerald and chocolate for 3.99 for a 2oz jar regular price. I came home and put a teaspoon of the glitter into abot 1oz of clear and jeated a junk jig just to test it out and it worked great, I put it in the oven and it held the heat, awesome stuff but now I need to get some clear powder.

PB, I only did a scrap jig just to see if it would hold the heat, some do some don't, the metal flake holds heat but the problem is finding ultra fine and I already went down the road of body glittler and fashion glitter is were you can get decent stuff but you can't use it on a white head. That is how I test it, if it bleeds a bit depend on the color and what it will be used for thats ok but sometimes the stuff really bleeds and it can melt, that stuff is a no go. The kind I got is called ArtMinds and it didn't bleed at all so I'm happy, no waiting on some more clear powder to come in.
