Hiya, thanks for the inspiration ❤ was that pva you stamped on first and did you start brushing off the gold leaf before the glue dried? Did you coat them with anything in the end too? Thanks so much
@mycozynest
@mycozynest 2 месяца назад
Thank you, SerenitySam 💜 I believe I used gold leaf glue, which needs to dry a bit so it becomes tacky. Then you apply gold leaf and wait for everything to dry. I didn't coat the goldleaf as this is a decorative piece that is not handled much.

Use watered down glue to apply the napkins and then seal with a water based top coat. I used Vintage Paint by JDL - Primer & Sealer.

Have you tried mixing the mica into the acrylic paste and then spread it onto the mold?
@mycozynest
@mycozynest 6 месяцев назад
Yes, that also works, but you do need a bit more mica for this. Even if you only apply it on the mold, most of the acrylic gets colored by it.

You are welcome 😊 Spray paint would work, but perhaps use primer first, so it will not wipe off. Or spray chalk paint.

This sis gorgeous ❤ Question for you: when you stick the paper, is it okay if the pieces of paper overlap? Tia!
@mycozynest
@mycozynest 6 месяцев назад
💜 Try to have as little overlap as possible, because the overlap will be darker than the rest of the napkin. Think of it as a jigsaw puzzle, with pieces fitting as tightly as possible. Or you could try napkins with white background. When you paint the backs of the glued on napkins, the white paint will blend in with the white napkin background.
