Ganesha Mural with candle

Hello my dear friends, Today I am sharing a Ganesha Wall Mural with Tea light candle with you. To make this, I used carpenters scrap woods. pasted MDF design for the Ganesha background. Used stencils for 'Shri' and 'Om'. pasted a small wood to hold candle. Once everything is dry, start giving paint layers,

Use Gold Acrylic metallic color to give highlights and for giving vintage look. Give 2-3 coats of Varnish to seal everything.

Vintage Tray - Decoupage on MDF

Today I am going to share a Decoupage project with you. I made a bright green tray using Folkart's acrylic paints. It is a MDF tray.

I first gave a base coat of red color. Then I rubbed some wax candle on some places so that the top coat comes off easily when I scrub it with sand paper. I gave a top coat of white chalk paint. Distressed using a sand paper.

Once I am happy with the look, I decoupage the tissue paper design.
I used apple green color for stenciling the whole tray surface. Painted polka dots on the borders of the tray.

Painted copper color on the edge of the tray and distressed again. Finally to add some interest I twirled one matching twine on the handles.

Finally, a good coat of Liquitex varnish gives a beautiful shine to the tray. And you are done!!

Mixed Media Junk MDF Tissue box using Acrylic Paints and Perfect Pearls

Hello my crafty friends! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Today I am back with another MDF Junk Tissue box holder…

For my Box, I first primer the whole box using white Gesso. Then I did some stenciling using 'art basics 3D matte gel transparent'. I used stencil 'Bubbles' and 'Art is'. I guess you know by now that 'Art is' is favorite stencil :)

Once completely dry, I glued my embellishments-Junk old jewelry pieces, laces, buttons, rings etc on the box using the same gel medium. Prepared all my embellishments using white Gesso. Once dry I painted the whole box including embellishments using FolkArt 2241E Apple Orchard acrylic paint.

Spray Lindy's starbust 'Mad Water Mint' spray all over the box. To give the project some vintage look, I did some shading using Hero Arts Brown color liquid dauber. To give more color variation, I spray 227E bright green acrylic paint Using an old tooth brush and lots of water. I hope you can see the small dark green dots all over the box!

To get the metallic shine, I first sprayed good amount of water on the box through my mini mister and through perfect pearls brush, I rubbed Turquoise perfect pearl generously. This process helped me to fix the perfect pearl on to box without coming off and a very good color contrast of green and blue.

 I glued the lace on top of the box. Colored Prima flowers using same Lindy's mint color spray and glued them on top for some extra interest.

 Lastly using Sunflower Sparkle Perfect pearl I did high lighting on the embellishments. Finally a coat of ranger's matte finish medium to seal the project. whoa!!! all done !!

 I am simply in love with these projects. Thanks for stopping by.
