Making Paper or Book Page Roses and Wreath

Welcome! Let's begin with this interesting little diddy. According to Dictionary.com, a glutton for punishment is: someone who habitually takes on burdensome or unplesant tasks or unreasonable amounts of work.

AQUA PAINT TREATMENT ~ HOW TO

The aqua treatment on this urn fairly simple. There are 3 main steps, with an optional 4th:

Step 1: Base coat of Kilz original sealer/primer spray paint (Lowes/Home Depot). Let dry completely before moving on to Step 2.

Step 2: One coat of Design Master Robin's Egg #792 spray paint (Michaels). Let dry completely before moving on to Step 3.

Step 3: A mixture of uncolored glaze (Lowes) with a bit of American Accents, Blossom White paint (Home Depot). I use the glazing to tone down the Robin's Egg #792, as the color comes out very bright. If you like it that way, you can skip this step.

The glazing process is the "make or break" step. Brush on your glazing, then wipe it off. If you take off too much, you can always apply more and wipe some off.
