Oh these will be so pretty to do! I just found this whole art of tumbler design and I think this one will be great for doing for family for Christmas!! 😍😍
Hi Amber! Thanks so much for sharing your creativity with all of us. So here's my (possibly silly) question. Since you'd be sealing with epoxy at the end anyway; do you think it would work to use that super-sticky (double-sided) "red tape" instead of mod podge for the stripes? That way you could just remove the red liner, glitter it up and voila! I could be way off on this idea...let me know what you think. ☺️
HI Lynn! There are no silly questions ever!! I have never seen the double sided tape used for this kind of craft, not to say that it hasn't been used I just haven't seen it. It never hurts to try it out and see how it goes. I find this way kinda easy for me. I am sure everyone has a different take on it. I would love to hear back if you do use the double sided tape method!!
I've seen on another channel where they let it dry for about a half hour then came in with a dry brush and went over the glitter to brush off loose glitter.
MrRealGoodMan you could do that. 😊 at the time I didn’t have spray paint so I didn’t do that. I also love glitter so even if I did do a white base I would have glittered the white!! There are many ways to go about this, this is just how I did it. Hope you have a bless day!!
Tx so much for sharing!!! Your cup is gorgeous!! Can’t wait to make for Christmas! So, silly question I know, u don’t tape over previous line that’s glittered & dryed before going on to next color? I’m new @ tumblers so thought I would ask! Tx again!!
When you epoxy the glitter cups how do you keep it from drying bumpy? I’ve had issues with glitter cups and avoid doing them for that reason, I have to sand and re epoxy so much it’s too time consuming. What do you do?
Samantha Brosnick I don’t put a ton of glitter on the cups. Maybe two layers at most. Then I spray with triple thick and pat down the glitter that is raised. Then epoxy, sand and epoxy again. You don’t want a lot of glitter and then it clump up! Hope that helps!!
You can use a dry paint brush after glittering to get all the excess stray glitter off so it won’t clump .. and then it won’t be bumpy when applying the epoxy
Hello love these. I would like to make my own for family members. Can u PLEASE tell me Where is the least expensive place to get the cups and glitter and glue and vinyl wholesale? THANK U IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!!!❤️🦋
Mia Agnew I don’t know where the least expensive place is. There are many companies out there that can help with wholesale and other things you are looking for. I would search on Facebook groups and see what you can find.
Brittany Berry if you are wanting crisp lines then I would use mod podge. But if you are wanting a blended effect then do it on the turner. Either way it’s going to look great! 😉
Unfortunately I don’t have a start to finish. But there are soooo many videos out there for this technique. If you have any other questions I would be so glad to help you out.
I want to do a cup with straight lines. but since ill be using epoxy how long do i let the epoxy sit for.. Also.. How do i do the different stripes without the colors going together.
Laurie Caron I don’t know how many colors I had. If you measure the distance between each piece of tape about an inch apart, that may have put equal amounts of colors. It’s really just on how you want it to look. There is no right or wrong ☺️
Depending on how wide the tape is, that’s how you will measure the distance between the tape. What you might could do is tape all around the cup and then remove the tape you don’t need. That should equal out the stripes you need.
Amanda Wampler so sorry, just now seeing this. No I don’t really have a pattern, just space the tape out as even as you can and paint between them. I’m sure there is an easier way now, since this was a while ago when I did this one.

Great job! I make tumblers also.
WOW... BEAUTIFUL
Judi Christopher thank you so much! Happy crafting!
double sided tape works too! ;)
Tina Buenzow yes it does! This video was made way before I ever knew about double sided tape! ☺️
what is the steps for double sided tape?
I've seen on another channel where they let it dry for about a half hour then came in with a dry brush and went over the glitter to brush off loose glitter.
Mickaybersmom yes you can do that. ☺️
Its beautiful
Silvia Martinez thank you! 😊
Amber Johnson your very welcome
So pretty,but if you don't mind me asking how do you get started selling your tumblers. Thank you in advance.
Why didn't you shoot a base coat of white first then you would only have to glitter the red.
MrRealGoodMan you could do that. 😊 at the time I didn’t have spray paint so I didn’t do that. I also love glitter so even if I did do a white base I would have glittered the white!! There are many ways to go about this, this is just how I did it. Hope you have a bless day!!
Would it be possible to seal one color then do the next color??
Sure!
You said you do mod podge again after the glitter, do you glitter twice too?
Rebecca yes I do mod podge, glitter, mod podge glitter and then mod podge again. Or you can spray with triple thick.
Tx so much for sharing!!! Your cup is gorgeous!! Can’t wait to make for Christmas! So, silly question I know, u don’t tape over previous line that’s glittered & dryed before going on to next color? I’m new @ tumblers so thought I would ask! Tx again!!
Joyce Cote I do wait to do the next line. I make sure the glitter is dry before I move on so that they don’t mix.
Do u tape the whole cup do all the red then let dry? Then peel off tape or wheb do u take the tape off?
riverreb123456 yes tape the whole cup first. Do your first stripe and then let it dry before you do your next one.
How did you seal? did you spray seal before epoxy so the glitter didn't run together?
Jackie Sabatino yes I used a clear spray to seal the glitter before I epoxy
Hi when apply my epoxy my stripe color was leaking onto the other . Do you have any advice for me?
You need to spray a clear coat to seal it before epoxy.
When you epoxy the glitter cups how do you keep it from drying bumpy? I’ve had issues with glitter cups and avoid doing them for that reason, I have to sand and re epoxy so much it’s too time consuming. What do you do?

You can use a dry paint brush after glittering to get all the excess stray glitter off so it won’t clump .. and then it won’t be bumpy when applying the epoxy
This is gorgeous!!!!! Where do you buy the tumblers from?
Ria Chapman I had bought them at Walmart, but there are many companies that sell them now.
Hello love these. I would like to make my own for family members. Can u PLEASE tell me Where is the least expensive place to get the cups and glitter and glue and vinyl wholesale? THANK U IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!!!❤️🦋
Mia Agnew I don’t know where the least expensive place is. There are many companies out there that can help with wholesale and other things you are looking for. I would search on Facebook groups and see what you can find.
Hobby lobby, Michael's, dollar tree, Walmart, Target
Will you seal or epoxy the cup afterwards?
Deborah Williams yes, I seal it with mod podge one more time and then epoxy!
Love it. How much did you charge?
S Meri for this glitter cup it’s $30.
How do I find you on etsy ?
I want to buy the candycane tumbler
Do you have to use modpodge or can you use epoxy if your doing it with a tumbler turner?
Brittany Berry if you are wanting crisp lines then I would use mod podge. But if you are wanting a blended effect then do it on the turner. Either way it’s going to look great! 😉
ok ive never done this so how can i find a step by step from start to finish?
Unfortunately I don’t have a start to finish. But there are soooo many videos out there for this technique. If you have any other questions I would be so glad to help you out.
I want to do a cup with straight lines. but since ill be using epoxy how long do i let the epoxy sit for.. Also.. How do i do the different stripes without the colors going together.
also how long does it take the modpodge to dry? Can i put epoxy over the layers once their dry and turn with my turner?
Do you let the first thing of glitter to dry?
Hedith Heredia yes let each dry before apply others
Amber Johnson thank you. I’m working on a similar cup. I would love to share it with you when done
Hedith Heredia that would be great! You can also follow me on Instagram and message me your finished product!
What brand of tumblers do you use? Thank you
laura spencer I get mine at Walmart.
laura spencer Looks like Ozark.
How many stripes did you have of each color? I am trying to get the perfect amount of tape. How many pieces of tape did you use?
Laurie Caron I don’t know how many colors I had. If you measure the distance between each piece of tape about an inch apart, that may have put equal amounts of colors. It’s really just on how you want it to look. There is no right or wrong ☺️
I have tried this several times and always end up with a space that is way bigger than the others and I have a spot where I can not make a stripe
Depending on how wide the tape is, that’s how you will measure the distance between the tape. What you might could do is tape all around the cup and then remove the tape you don’t need. That should equal out the stripes you need.
I’ve tried to do the strips and it never comes out even, I’ve bought three different tapes and I can’t do it 😫
Mrs. Riv my first time I did it, it didn’t come out right. ☺️ practice practice!!
Pretty and I really wanted to watch this, but so hard to listen to- um, um, ah, uh
Double sided tape will save you several steps
Amanda Nally ☺️ this video was made way before I new about double sided tape. Yes that helps so much better!
Do you have a pattern to do the stripes?
Amanda Wampler so sorry, just now seeing this. No I don’t really have a pattern, just space the tape out as even as you can and paint between them. I’m sure there is an easier way now, since this was a while ago when I did this one.
How do you set the glitter to keep it from coming off?
seal and coat with epoxy
What kind of tape did you use and what size and what size tumbler
Ashley Miller the tumbler size is a 20oz. The tape I have no clue what size it was sorry.
