Christmas Ornaments Fluid Art

I got 30 of these poured, finish sprayed, priced and down to my daughters' store to adorn one of her Christmas trees.  I did 3 pours with the same colors, same sequence of colors, and 3 different looks.  This is Pour #1

Christmas Colors Fluid Art

WHAT A MESS.....  Tonight I did a major "Christmas colors" pour and dips.  Christmas ornaments, small candle jars, a couple of canvas pieces, and my 4 x 6 dips.    It will be fun to go downstairs tomorrow and see the results, finish coat, and put things back together.  I am hoping to do another pour of Christmas ornaments tomorrow.    (I keep my glitter in a salt shaker so that I have more control of placement and amount).

Resin and Rubber Stamps

Image
An Etsy buyer asked if resin would work on the rubber stamps I sell on Etsy. I didn't know so here is a photo of the results. WORKED GREAT WITH A RELEASE spray. The resin portion on the right shows white but it is actually clear.  Once I got it started with my finger nail it pulled right off....  On the rubber stamp to the left you can see exactly where the resin laid and that the stamp is still in good condition in done correctly. I used the Evirontex 2 part resin that I purchased at JoAnnes.  It is spendy so when I need it I make sure that I at least have a 40% off coupon to use.  On my site I sell Cool Slip which is a release in a spray bottle.

Wing Stencils / Canvas

Image
Another project I am working on.  I always seem to have at least 4-5 things "in process".   I used a silver molding paste which is giving a bit of dimension to the piece.  I like that they are different...so will sell separately but my next  will be a pair of the one I like the best when I finish and I want to do pink for a girls room.....every child needs wings to fly.  I am in the process of adding some shading and the hologram glitter which I think makes the piece.  I will post when finished.  The wing stencil is available for sale in my Etsy store as well as silver, gold and platinum paste.....I have several differed wing stencils and the smallest ones are just adorable.....It is fun to be retired and able to play. The canvas pieces are stretched canvas boards and the size was a special order.  I "think" I am going to add silver chain as the hanging element

Fluid Dip Art

There are times when I pour or dip and am just not sure how well I like the pieces I do but once I start trying on mats, and add a frame I love the results.  The finished piece is for my grandson for Christmas.  I picked the frame up yesterday at my favorite thrift store....I love when it is just there for me to buy ......  Got the rest matted and they will go to the SunRiver store.  The green in the frame is glass and is part of the actual frame which is silver....and I had a silver mat.  It turned out perfect.

POURED Bottle Vase

Colors are OK on this but not my favorite...but hopefully it will appeal to someone.  Really like the bottle.  Perfect for flowers, some fairy lights, etc.

Poured Christmas Ornaments

A set of 3.  Green, beige, gold and silver.  Will put a finish coat on the tonight.   Also did several 4 x 6 on processed paper that I will mat.   These look like flasks.  I always like unique and different.  Have 3 more to do and if they sell in the store I will get some more.
