Stencilled Wall Hanging

Hi everyone Steph Ackerman here today with a stenciled wall hanging. 



Begin by adding gesso to a panel.  Allow it to dry then use the Delta Sander to sand the surface.  This give the surface some "teeth" so the spray inks will shine.


Spray on an assortment of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists, allowing each color to dry before adding the next color.  To work faster, consider heat setting each layer.


Once the panel is dry, place the stencil in place and use molding paste to create a 3 dimensional look to your wall hanging.
 

Allow to dry completely, then paint Tattered Angels High Impact Paints randomly on the words.


Add a flower to the left corner, then use the Model Building Set to create 3 holes in the right corner.  



Slip beads onto wire and insert into the holes.  Bend the beaded wires into a pleasing design.


Create a hanger with some rope.

 
Remember to have no fear of the future.
 
Thanks for stopping by.

Rustic Snowman Christmas Ornament Tutorial

Hi everyone! Tammy here with you today with a fun rustic Christmas ornament tutorial. I love Christmas time and making ornaments has always been a family tradition in our home. This year we have a rustic theme for our Christmas tree and this fun snowman ornament fits perfectly! 
This is how I made it...

Supplies:
Wood pieces
Ribbon
Fine tip Sharpie marker


Directions:
Use a medium size drill bit and create small holes in the top of a small piece of wood, two holes in the middle piece, 


and one hole in the top of the bottom pieces of wood.


String ribbon through the holes and tie double knots to hold the wood pieces together.


Add decoration to the wood pieces with the Sharpie and hang on your tree! 


I love how this turned out! It really goes with our theme this year. I hope this shows you how easy it it to use the Proxxon Model Building and Engraving Set to create Christmas ornaments of your own.

Let's be friends!
