Decorating our geometric shapes with patterned papers
We have a lovely range of geometric shapes and here is one way to decorate them to really make that shape stand out on the plaque!
What you need
STEP ONE - Paint the plaque in yopur chosen colour
STEP TWO - Paint your geometric shape. You can use acrylic paint with a fine brush, paint pens or a small roller
STEP THREE- Apply 2-3 coats of paint to the plaque and 1 coat to the shape
STEP FOUR - Choose your patterned paper to back the shape. Draw around it with pencil
STEP FIVE - Next cut out the shape
STEP SIX - Take your wood glue and apply this to the back of the geometric shape
STEP SEVEN - Once dry take a craft knife to cut off any of the excess paper
STEP EIGHT - Apply wood glue to the back of the shape with paper and fix onto the painted plaque
STEP NINE - Leave to dry
STEP TEN - Apply your chosen lacquer spray to protect your item. We are using the gloss spray to give a shine to the finish
STEP ELEVEN - Leave to fully dry
STEP TWELVE - You can decorate with gems and flat back pearls
