The main thing is inspiration and a little imagination. And even a nondescript jar will shine with bright colors and will lift your spirits every time you look at it.
Today we are giving new life to a small jar for bulk products that has already outlived its useful life. Once upon a time, she kept the most precious thing in herself - coffee beans and held the lid tightly so as not to lose a drop of aroma. But time passed, the coffee ran out, and finally there wasn’t a grain left in the jar. OK it's all over Now? Of course not!
We need:
- solvent-based stained glass paints;
- acrylic outline in gold color;
- acrylic contours and glitters of different shades for finishing decor;
- printout of the motif on offset paper;
- alcohol-containing liquid.
For decoration we will use a regular glass transparent jar.
Before starting work, the part where the painting will be done must be treated with an alcohol-containing liquid.
The motif must be adjusted to size before printing and cut along the contour. There is no need to cut out all the shaped elements, because this will only complicate the decorating process.
We glue the motif onto the inside of the jar with water and outline the outline with acrylic paint.
The lid will have to be painted “out of the blue” in the style of Indian paisley patterns with gold paint, and the jar will have to be painted with a bronze outline from the Idea company.
The motive itself
Let's start filling. It is convenient to first fill all the elements with one shade and then with others in turn.
Let's start with yellow.
Add red and mignonette (yellow-green).
Inside
A drop of cobalt blue
Pink and white (chamomile petals and inside the leaf)
Fill the gaps with pink
Purple - edging and two shades of green leaves
Add a golden outline onto the dried paint
And white for decoration
Add yellow to the lid and jar
Complete drying, as recommended by the manufacturer, is achieved within 72 hours, after which the surface can be washed in the usual way and enjoyed.
