Hey all! Stopping by today to show ya my OTP. It is really light on the decorations department. It isn't all flared out in yummy stuffs. Thats because I made it for my DD. She is using it for what it is a jewelry rack. I did love how the frame itself came out. It was delish! Here it is..
The center area I have the chippies hanging over the edge for 2 reasons. 1 is to complete the heart shape from the canvases below and mor real estate for her chandelier earrings to hang. The outside edges are reserved for her long necklaces. I treated the edge with some clear coat to help the finish on it last. I just love the look of it. Here are some close ups..
For the chippies I covered them in
black paint 13 arts. Then I applied some
silks randomly. I lightly covered the canvases with the colors from the frame and then I freehanded zebra stripes (first time don't judge! LOL). After it was dried I heat embossed with clear embossing enamel. Here is another close up..
For the frame piece I first went around the edges it 2 different colors of
silks with my fingers. Again I did this randomly. Then I used a
Prima Color bloom spray and then the colors started dancing together. I didn't stop this from happening. I sprayed a little more in different locations. to create unity. Then I heat set the frame. After it was all dried really good I used a spray varnished and sealed it. I used a Non yellowing kind. If you read on the can it should tell ya. The one I used was by Folk art. I have used this many times on my hand painted projects and it hasn't let me down yet! For the flower I also randomly applied paints and the
Prima Color bloom to tie it in the project as well. Wha la done. Thank you for taking a peak at my project!
