Monogrammed Cake Topper

Materials:

• 3 inch brushed silver cake topper from Ebay seller Blueargyledotcom.
• 60 clear/slightly pearlescent Swarovski crystals from Hobby Lobby.
• 60 Rose Swarovski crystals from Hobby Lobby.
• Jewel glue from Wal-Mart (meant for jewels on fabric, but it still works peachy!)
• Tweezers

Thoroughly clean the cake topper. Stick toothpick in top of glue nozzle. Place small amount individually on the metal cake topper. Place crystal with tweezers. I did mine in a pattern alternating colors. Scrape off excess glue in between crystals with clean toothpick.
