You get bonus kid points for having a fun activity spread out over a whole afternoon and you won’t believe how excited they’ll be to check and see if it’s time to pour on the next layer..
that I really love for a few weeks now, so finally I had to jump in and make my first project.. Let me show you what I did!.I have a stack of 6 different fabrics that I’ll be using in here, and for this project I chose these four..
I picked up four plain canvases from the dollar store, each measuring about 8×10.I put them out on the fabric and traced around each one, leaving about 2-3 inches extra to fold over.. Well, maybe a little more than that.I just eyeballed it!.
I picked up some small lower-case letters that spelled out Jack from the craft store.I also grabbed a really big “J”.
I painted them all with the same white craft paint, just so they’d match.. Kennedy helped me wrap each canvas sort of like a present.
We used hot glue to keep everything really tight and make our corners as sharp as possible.Tip #3: The technique.
I went over the grooves and the sides first with a good angled brush before rolling.Sounds like a quick little step right?
This probably took the longest of anything, but was totally necessary.I had a couple of good non-disposable angled brushes on hand that I switched out and cleaned up if they started to seem like the paint was drying on them too much.
