Toolbox transformation


I have had this ugly tool box forever....I loved that it was long and slender....that is why I kept it for so long...I wanted it to be special.....   This is the before, (of course) and it is working up beautifully using a stencil I purchased from Russia, modeling paste in Gold, silver and copper along with other stencils that I sell in my Etsy shop.  I have even incorporated some gold and copper colored crystals into the design and some black glitter which I purchased on a whim and love.

My canvas pieces are hand wrapped artist grade canvas boards which are available  in a variety of sizes.  They "pour" so much nicer than the nubby grades. I also used the new Dynasty Duo stencil brush....AWESOME......  I had some bleeding with the leaf stencil but that was my fault .... I had washed my brush and did not towel dry it well enough before I used it....  Lesson Learned. It is great to have an alternative choice when a pour is less than desirable ....
