I would like to add glitter to a dress. I am going as a fairy godmother for Halloween and I am using a prom/brides maid dress made of polyester and nylon. I don't want it to look tacky but just a little extra flare to match my daughter's costume.
There is spray glitter that is made to be used on cloth. You can find it at Hobby Lobby or any other craft store. I used it when making costumes for my daughters variety show.
They sell spray that is intended to go on fresh flowers, it add's a very fine touch of glitter. Very small glittler flakes (since it comes out of a spray paint can), but holds fairly well, it won't stiffen fabric quite as much as others will, since the flower petals are still soft after use. I can be founds at Micheals crafts I believe.
They make a spray glitter that I've had kids use on paper snowflakes. Don't know why you couldn't use it on fabric. Maybe yoiu should test it on a scrap first. I ordered ours from a school supply but I'm sure a craft store would have it.
