General Supplies
Instructions
-
Glue glass candleholder to bottom of plastic vase to add visual interest to shape and weight to piece.
-
Spray interior and exterior surface of entire piece with White Textured Shimmer. This will give you a good base from which to start, a superior bond without primer and a safe paint for use on both plastics and glass. Let dry.
-
Mist entire piece with one coat of Make It Stone! Copper.
-
Mist again with Make It Stone! Gold with a light hand, letting glints of the copper base show through.
-
Dull the metallic colours with a stonier speckle by adding a thin outer layer of Make It Stone! Charcoal Sand. Let dry.
-
Add tone and depth by freehanding alternating vertical sweeps of colour using Almond for the highlights and Woodland Brown for shadows. Let dry completely.
-
For a long lasting durable finish and protection from the outdoors, spray several light coats of Make It Last! to seal your project. Let dry completely.
-
Fill with your choice of flowers.
Tips
Modify this project by combining any stray objects together with glue to create new and interesting shapes. Visit a craft store and grab wooden craft pieces, glass vases, plastic bowls, or any other objects that are interesting to you and fit nicely together to create a custom piece of pottery by unifying the materials with any colour of Make It Stone!® Textured Paints.
