Hot-glue Charms Memory Circle
Memories are moments that make us who we are and what better way to capture them than photos. This project is all about capturing those memories, special moments in our lives like graduation, anniversary, birthday, Mother's Day, Father's Day etc.

Prepping the Mould
Firstly we will brush our moulds with some talcum powder so that the hot glue sticks to the mould and make sure your hot glue gun is hot so that the glue flows easily .
Pouring Hot Glue in the Moulds
After Prepping we will fill the whole shape with hot glue and then let it dry completely. Here we have to be careful while handling hot-glue gun so that we don't hurt our hand.
Colouring, Base and Assembly
Carefully remove the charm from the mould and cut any excess hot glue and paint it as you like.
Then we will get the base ready here I have painted it in white colour. I did two coats of paint for maximum colour.
After the base has dried I placed all the coloured charms for a rough idea of placement and when everything was finalised I glued it all to the base and added glitter.
Finally to hang it I glued a bit of jute rope to the back of the base.
