This 4th of July project is a work in progress. I have all the pieces painted and spayed with a finishing spray. With the finishing spray, I can hang my wreath outside and it will be protected from the weather. As you can see, lots of pieces went into the 4th of July wreath. The guy was the most challenging, his pants gave me the most fits... so to speak. I now have an almost finished "product". YEA!! I will post the pictures of "work in progress" and then the finished product picture.
Putting the project together~
Finished Product all put together!!!
Hi Beth,
ReplyDeletethe 4th of July project looks great! It is so cute. Now let me ask you do u paint all of the pieces? then clue them on? I am interested in this tolepainting, never heard of it before.
Charissa,
ReplyDeleteYes I paint all the little pieces and then glue them on. There is different kinds of brush stokes you do to get the different effects. I should have taken the pictures up closer so you can see all the details. You will have to come with me one night. It is way fun!! Beth
Hi Beth,
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine did crafts for years and used to have his own booth at craft fairs. He also had wood making tools and would either cut the pieces himself to make things such as Christmas tree ornaments. Do you make the wood pieces as well or are you able to purchase them? Your wreath is so cute.
Hi Susan, I am lucky in the fact my dad does all the wood cutting for me. The items can be purchased but I just buy the wood for my dad and a new saw blade when he needs it.
ReplyDeleteThanks that is one of my favorite "products".
