Wood Laser Frames for Winter

Without further ado, here are the instructions for the Pine Cone laser frame:

You will need:

5"x7" Wood Laser Frame - available at Michaels Arts & Crafts stores

DecoArt® Americana® Acrylic paint:

    Bittersweet (Brown) and Snow (Titanium) White

DecoArt® Americana® Weathered Wood™ Crackling Medium

Decorative Twigs

Potpourri Mix (for Small Pine Cones, etc)

Glue Gun

Small Sea Sponge

Sponge Brush

1.  Paint the front of the frame brown.  Let dry then re-paint with an even coat of crackling medium.  Let dry thoroughly. 

2.  Using the sea sponge, dab white paint on top of the crackling medium.  Use a hair dryer or heat embossing tool to expedite the drying process.  As the white paint dries the crackle medium will crack to reveal the brown paint underneath.

3.  Use a glue gun to adhere twigs, pine cones and other embellishments to the center of the frame at the top.

4.  Place the frame on the wall around a small grapevine wreath, photo, etc. for a unique holiday decoration. 

This is the third frame in the Christmas series. 

      

I'll post the instructions for this next week, so  y'all come back now........

Yours truly,
