Happy Friday!!!! Today’s tutorial is how I achieved the glitter/color blocking with acrylic. I use a blade you can get from your local crafts store life Hobby Lobby, Michaels, JoAnns, etc. 

Three key 🔑 things to remember when acrylic blocking:

1. The end of each bead should be thicker (this is going to help with the sharp cuts and keeping each color separated
2. Wait until the acrylic is Matte/Dry to make your cut 
3. Utilize and Emery Board or regular Nail File to sharpen the cut once it is dry before you place the next color
