Let's Paint πŸ–ŒπŸŽ¨ - Working on some new earrings and playing around with some paint techniques. So to start with I knew that I wanted a tiered design, focusing on a hexagon shape. Slightly doming the metal to give a little more depth to them. Once finished filing, sanding and polishing I was ready to paint them, the paint I used was Pebeo texture paints suitable for metal surfaces. Worked on a few samples first to see what colour combinations and paint techniques worked well together, finally settling on several final designs with three colours on each pair. Paint onto each shape in a tiered layered pattern and let them settle slightly before using a cocktail stick to swirl and blend the colours to create a sort of marbled effect. Keep an eye out next week as they will be available to buy from my Etsy and Folksy Shops. Like ❀ Share Follow Me 😍😍.

Next Project - So moving forward from my previous post started thinking what else can I do with the diamond shape and what colours to use. I decided I wanted to shape this one using the doming tool to just give the shape a little dimension and also a few more holes for maybe chain or beads, I'm thinking a little bit more rustic with various beads and chains (recycled I have a box full of mixed colours shapes etc). Adding a few colours to combine together into a sort of marbled effect, really happy so far with how they have turned out, have a few days t wait now till they are fully dry. I will keep you posted to see what happen next 😍. Like❀ Share Follow Me 😍😍
