We are expecting a baby girl VERY soon! So I need to get a move on with decorating her room!
For my next glitter project I am going to show you how to make A SUPER cute and easy piece of art! I have always love butterflies and that is the theme of the nursery.
Here is what you will need:
Blank Canvas
Paint
Vinyl Stickers
Here is how I made it:
1. I painted the canvas the back ground color(s) that I wanted.
I wanted it to look the morning sky turning from purple to blue. I started out with Dark purple at the bottom and added white to fade up to reach a little below the middle. Then, at the top I started with the teal blue and added white to fade down. I kept the paint thick so that I could blend the colors on the canvas. Once I got to the middle I painted up with the purple and down with the blue and over lapped to blend. Again, I kept the paint thick to help blend the colors.
You could keep it really simple and just do one color too! :)
Let your paint dry
Place your vinyl stickers on your canvas when your paint is fully dry. You can move them around a bit to get the right placement.
Now to add the glitter. I worked in small sections to add the glitter.
I added the glue, then sprinkled with glitter and tapped off the excess.
I used two colors of glitter on my mine you can use as much glitter as you want!
(I used Art Glitter #95 Summer Sea and #230 Halo)
Allow time for the glue to dry and shake off the excess glitter, even though you tapped off most of it the still will be a little more to tap off.
Hang it up and enjoy!
Super easy and super cute
Very nice butterfly piece!
