It all started with the Tatted Mask ( http://www.instructables.com/id/Tatted_Mask_1/ ) 
Which is, fabulous.  However, I have two issues with it;
a) it involves tatting, which is a lovely, and mythical new hobby, that I haven't the wherewithal to learn.
b) it doesn't look nearly as sexy or mysterious with glasses + mask.
c) I have a short amount of time but a whole lot of glitter to make the love happen.

And since hot glue isn't a hobby, I decided to try to see what was possible with it.

Step 1Find a pair of glasses!

Find a pair of glasses!
Dig through your old spectacle collection, and find one that isn't too far off from your current prescription, or if you aren't bespectacled (or if you have contacts), you can thrift any old pair of classes, or cheapo sunglasses, reading glasses , or old 3D movie glasses.

You likely will not return these frames to their original condition... and the wider the frame, the better...(ie, wire frames are more may be a bit harder to work with than plastic frames)
