Hello everyone,
Leanne here with you today.
I have created a Snow lady / now decorative button jar.
A recycled plastic jar was used as the base for my project.
The base has been painted with chalk paint,
and fine glitter was sprinkled over the wet paint.
Allow to dry.
When dry, spray with Crystal Kote Matte Varnish as shown.
The varnish helps to seal and protect the glittery surface.
Next glue two styrene balls together using Tiger Grip Glue.
Then mix equal parts of gesso and Craft & Hobby PVA Glue together.
Then use a brush, brush this mix over the styrene balls as shown.
While this surface is still wet sprinkle on some faux snow.
Allow to completely dry overnight.
Next create a paper rosette, as shown.
Then glue this to the lid using 450 Quick dry Adhesive.
Then glue the snow lady to the paper rosette using
Tiger Grip Glue.
Now decorate the snow lady and jar.
I have used a doily, trims, beads and a clay nose.
All items were glued into place using
450 Quick Dry Adhesive.
Next the hat was created with layers of
cardboard, tissue paper and cheese cloth,
glued together using
Craft & Hobby PVA Glue.
Helmar products used:
Craft & Hobby PVA Glue
450 Quick Dry Adhesive
Tiger Grip Glue
Crystal Kote Matte Varnish
Helmar glues are so easy and versatile to use,
making this a super fun project to create.
So until next time,
Have fun creating.
