Craft Project #10 – Wooden Flowers

I decided to continue making what I call pre-decoration signs before the actual decorations are put up. So, I’m working on the spring sign but there is some pieces that are made separately. The first part are the flowers that will adorn the sign. I found these flowers on Amazon and the they came in a package of 100. I will be using 6 separate wood flower designs each in their own individual color. At least for this project.

Flower number one was created using Apple Barrel matte acrylic paint in pink polish as a base coat. I then topped the base coat with 2 coats of FolkArt multi-surface glitter acrylic paint. I love how the flower has turned out. I have high hopes for the remainder flowers.

Flower number two was created using delta Ceramcoat matte acrylic paint in the color Calypso Coral. I topped the base coat with 1 coat of FolkArt Glitterific acrylic paint in the color Neon Tangerine. This paint is thick so it really only took one coat with a few touch ups here and there.

Flower number three was created using Apple Barrel matte acrylic paint in the color Cameo Pink as the base coat and topping it with Recollections fine glitter in the color blush. I love how subtle the color turned out.

Flower number four was created using Apple Barrel matte acrylic paint in the color Sunny Day as the base coat and topping it with Recollections fine glitter in the color Sunflower.

Flower number five was created using Apple Barrel matte acrylic paint in the color Pink Polish as the base coat and topping it with Recollections fine glitter in the color Bubblegum.

Last, but not least, is flower number six. This flower splash was created using FolkArt matte acrylic paint in the color Soft Apple as the base coat. I topped it with Recollections fine glitter in the color Mint. For some reason, this particular flower looks more like a paint splash than a flower which made me think it would be more appropriate as greenery than what would normally be considered a flower color.

In the end, all of the flowers were finished with a thick coat of Mod Podge to keep the glitter in place and to make them shine!

Now it is on to the next wooden project… Butterflies!!!!
