Step 3

Coat richly the entire surface of the styrofoam elephant with the glitter dust glue (approx. 1 mm, so that the adhesive does not drip). Sprinkle immediately the viscose flocking powder onto the still wet glitter dust glue. Let it dry well out, preferably overnight. You can put the skewered elephant in a glass for drying.
