I started out by painting the outer corners white, to make the color on top pop a bit more. If your color is quite opaque, this step could easily be skipped.

Paint the outer part of the ‘petals’ with acrylic paint. Start with the darkest shade at the bottom – then adding a little more white to the mixture when a new round of ‘petals’ start.

To add glitter, I like to start with a big piece of paper as an underlay. Create a crease at the bottom of the paper to collect the access glitter. Then paint the outer part of the ‘petals’ with glue.

Shake some magical glitter in a matching color over the glued area and repeat until the cone is fully covered.
