Milton’s Daughter: Debi’s Design Diary DIY Paint: Hey Sailor (dark blue), White Swan
Let’s make it!
I painted the frame with two coats of Hey Sailor, and dried in between the coats.
Next, I wet the paint brush with water and then painted White Swan onto the frame and dried it with my heat tool.
I sanded it just enough to bring out some of the blue undercoat and the gold base color.
For the background, I hot glued craft sticks to the backing board that came with the frame. The board is a bit glossy, so I glued a bit extra on the edges. It’s already cute framed just as it is, but we are going to paint it!
I used White Swan to paint it and then I dried it with my heat tool.
I separated the layers of napkin (you’ll have either two or three ply) and put Mod Podge on the backing board. Then I smoothed the paper napkin over it and sanded the edges of the napkin off. I was hoping the lines would show between the craft sticks, and they do!
Once it was all sanded, I dried it with my heat tool.
Our frame has a kickstand, so little bunny can sit on a shelf or a tiered tray or wherever she wants!
I styled this quickly, and it needs more greenery, but here’s an idea:
She’s ready for her close up!
This is so stinkin’ cute, y’all! Let me know in the comments what inspires you to craft for spring! I appreciate each and every one of you.
Thank you so much for stopping by,
