Gift of Name

I found it a pure joy painting these for gifts.  Here's how I did it:

  1. paint a background color with acrylic paint

  2. plan your design with a pencil

  3. paint

  4. apply photo copies with Mod Podge

  5. seal with Mod Podge or spray sealant

  6. when dry rub brown shoe polish with cloth around edges to antique

  7. add ribbon around edges

  8. embellish with ribbons and buttons
