Rustic pen stand!!

Hi friends,
Today, I am here to give you detailed steps how I made this beautiful pen stand. This is multi purpose stand made up of raw MDF. I really love.playing with metallic waxes and so let's get started..






Now coming back on to my project... I have prepared small pictorial tutorial for the making of this project..
  • First of all I gathered all the required material.
  • Then completely covered this wooden MDF pen stand with white gesso. 
  • After that I used newly lauch stone effect texture paste from Itsy Bitsy with the help of stencil.

  • Let it completely dry all the three sides and then on front side I stick steampunk wooden chippies from Itsy Bitsy and then covered it completely with black gesso.

 
  • After completely dried I assembled all the embellishments separately coated with black gesso.
  • Then comes the final touch up. For that I chose metallic waxes from Itsy Bitsy and metallic paints from expressions craft and started highlighting the embellishments with wax on fingers. Rubbing slowly to get it perfectly done.
Hope you all liked my project..

Orange box!!


Hi friends,
After long gap, I am back with my altered art creation. Here, I decided to alter empty box of Zoop watch... 


I really love to create altered art and so this time I decided to reform Zoop watch box of my daughter and see how beautiful it turned out..

Supplies I used:

  • White heavy Gesso by expressions craft
  • Chalk paint by expressions craft - Orange and Green
  • Resin made from the clay from Crafters Corner
  • Metal embellishment
  • Metallic wax from Art Alchemy from Crafters Corner
  • Fevicryl Orange color
  • Clear drops
  • Stencils from Itsy Bitsy
  • Texture paste from Expressions craft
Here are the steps how I created this:
  • First of all I completely cover the box with white gesso to prepare base for mixed media.
  • Then I covered entire box with green color chalk paint by dabbing technique and then I placed the moulds in desired manner.
  • Let it completely dry.
  • After that just color the resin embellishments with orange fevicryl color to give it bright orange color.
  • Then just start highlighting the embellishments with silver metallic wax.
Ta da... my art piece is ready...
