Yes dds done this is her room. Dead easy, got glitter from b & m, mixed into paint and painted on. Very effective.

You can buy glitter wall paper. We has some in our first living room with a fine glitter by Julian MacDonald I believe. I'm sure you can buy more dramatic paper. It might be hard painting over glitter if you paste/ paint it on walls.

We did this for my younger sister a while ago.
Painted it a standard purple first then mixed glitter with a clear varnish type paint and put that on top once the purple had dried.
Looked brilliant but I can't remember the name of the clear paint thing which isn't helpful. :/

Go on the diy on a budget fb page. They like a bit of glitter over there and will have loads of advice!

Ooh replies- thanks!

I wasn't sure if I mixed it with paint if it would just look like textured paint and not show through the glitter.

Valspar do a glitter that you can just add into paint. It's not cheap, but looks pretty good. Get it in B&Q.
