"Okay, so we've woven the tissue paper through the body, made it really bright and colorful and given ourselves some surfaces to apply some glitter. And what we want to do here, is use a little bit of glitter, and this might even be a place where we can use a glue-water solution and a paintbrush. And what we want to do is, apply a very small amount of the glue solution, to the tissue paper. Just dabbing it on, creating a wet surface, a sticky surface. It should hold the glitter, no problem. And then we'll take our glitter shakers and sprinkle it on. This glue is going to dry clear, and it's actually going to help in the form of the fish. So it'll actually hold things a little bit more solid. We can continue that onto the red, if there's any places that you've missed, you can also do it along the fins and the tail. You could change up the glitter, you could use a silver glitter, there's also some colorful glitters that would look pretty. And we can shake him off, when he's done, just to make sure that we get any of the excess glitter out of the way. We'll go ahead, and we'll repeat on the tail."
