Paint the grill pan white or whatever color you choose. If not using chalk based paint, then two coats will be needed. You may like to check out my DIY Chalk Paint recipe here for a shortcut.
Add a thin layer of mod podge onto the sections of your pan you want to add glitter. I did the ends.
Sprinkle glitter lightly over your mod podged areas being careful to catch the glitter in a handy magazine underneath.
Cut out the section of the gift bag scene you love most that fits the grill pan.
Weave the battery operated lights through the holes in the grill pan and tape them down. The flat lights come in handy for this part.
Glue your gift bag scene on top of the lights.
Add faux branches to the sides of the grill pan as desired.
Brush white paint over the branches if you desire a "snowy" look.
Make an optional 'messy' bow for the grill pan decoration. See tutorial HERE.
