2. Alumilite

There are many brands of epoxy but this is a great one to start off with.

3. Plastic cups with stir sticks

Each time you cover your cup with a layer of epoxy – you will need to measure out equal parts of part A & B Alumilite – each layer takes about 6 hours to dry…you will need clean cups each layer so it’s good to stock up! The craft sticks need to be clean as well – these ones work great!

4. Plastic cups

You need a larger cup to add part A and B Alumilite before stirring, otherwise the epoxy will drip over the sides. This allows for clean mixing and enables you to use the stir stick slowly without overflowing to eliminate bubbles.

5. Nitrile Rubber Gloves

After pouring the epoxy on the tumbler, use gloves to glide your finger along cup to feel if the tumbler is completely covered and to eliminate bubbles.

6. Mod Podge & Brush

Mod Podge is used (for some) to glue the first layer of glitter. There are various methods, so some start with epoxy and add glitter layers and more epoxy.

Along with this you will need a brush to apply.

You may also need some foam brushes.

This brush also works to dust off the glitter after the Mod Podge dries.

7. Silicone mats

This works under your turner to collect glitter. (You can add a piece of computer paper to also catch the glitter/epoxy).

8. Glitter!

Now comes the fun part – you can select all sorts of glitter to decorate your cup. There are Amazon brands like Martha Stewart or you can go with a fancier brand like The Glitter Guy. The Glitter Guy has a huge presence on Facebook and has been a super helpful resource for cup makers!
