instructions

  1. Paint your garden pots with Misty Blue and Metropolitan. Let dry.
  2. Cut sections of the silkscreen stencil and place them in your desired position. Peel off the back of the stencil and place them on the surface. Apply Classic Black to your stencil brush. Wipe off most of the paint onto a paper towel- this will keep the paint from bleeding under the stencil. Hold your loaded brush perpendicular to your stencil and dab or swirl onto your surface. Remove the stencil and let dry.
  3. Dip one side of your wood cube in Fresh earth. Wipe most of the paint onto a paper towel. Drag the painted side of your wood cube on the lamp. This will create a distressed look.
  4. Repeat the previous step on the pots with Farmhouse White and Classic Black. Let dry.

FolkArt One Decor Paint should be cleaned from your brushes and/or tools using soap and water immediately after each use.
Yes, FolkArt One Decor Paints do mix well with each other to create any color you desire. Begin by adding a small amount of the darker color into the lighter color, then continue adding small amounts of the darker color, a little at a time, until the desired color or value is achieved. It is recommended to use a palette knife to mix two or more colors when creating a custom color.
The beauty of painting with FolkArt One Decor Paint is that a surface does not require massive preparation work.  Simply brush FolkArt One Decor Paint directly onto a smooth project surface.  Note:  For best professional results, the project surface may be sanded smooth first.
