  Step 1

  Clean the flat part of your posts to get off all the dirt and oil from your fingers. I used acetone nail polish remover, but you could use rubbing alcohol, Windex, or just soap and water.

• 

  Step 2

  Put a generous drop of hot glue on each post. Be careful about stringing and stretching!

• 

  Step 3

  Paint the glue and whatever part of the post may still be visible with a thick coat of nail polish.

• 

  Step 4

  While the polish is still very tacky, but no longer drippy, dip it in your glitter, making sure to coat it thoroughly.
  .
  Allow it to dry for a little while and it's ready to wear!

I have multicolor glitter that I finally now have a use for. I'm adding these to my list of "Things to make for friends for Christmas."
