Not boxed out yet!
Hi all
Many thanks for stopping by.
I am still playing and loving the new Chalk paints by DecoArt. Today I also used a fabulous stencil by the very talented and funny Carolyn Dube. Do look her up on Youtube.
I started with a box I found, which was rather battered and cracked.
It had a big crack across the lid, but don't think you can see it from this photo.
I ripped out the insides (cruel I know) covered it with gesso to, hopefully, fill in the holes left where I had taken the insides out and to cover the crack on the top. Sanded when it was dry.
Using Carolyn's stencil and a palette knife, I scraped DecoArt Modeling Paste through the stencil all over the top roughly. The roughly part wasn't on purpose, it was just my cack- handedness!
Painted with a mixture of the Chalk paints on the outside,
then on the inside too!
Do hope you liked it.
