Instructions:

1. Spray paint fruit. Let dry.
    
2. Apply Tacky Dot  Singles, spacing around entire pear. Remove clear liner to expose all adhesive. Hold over paper plate and sprinkle with glitter. Shake off excess. Return excess glitter back to container.
    
3. To create glitter lines, cut Double Stick Sheets into strips. Apply to pears. Apply glitter.
    
4. If desired, add felt mustache and black glitter dot eyes to create a fun and funky decorated pear.
    
5. Display in bowl, on plate or in vase with tinsel
    
6. Designer note: I created the last pear by mistake! After I sprayed with color, I accidentally dropped the pear into sand. I liked it so much I let it dry and then applied a second coat of spray paint over the sand.
