wow-absolutely gorgeous!! Love the colours and all the detail-like Cindy said, this must've taken a long time!!Your hard work paid off beautifully though :)
I know I say this a lot, but this must be so amazing in person! It's a gorgeous photo, but all the work you put in to making the design so beautiful I am sure really stands out IRL! I would never, ever, think of decorating the cabinet with the gorgeous stencil and all the fabulous colors! I love all the cute things inside and the salt shaker!
WOWZER Melissa, this is absolutely stunning & I am with Elizabeth would love to watch! Your attention to the the little things is amazing as are your techniques. Can I saw WOWZER again!:)
***GASP***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is sooooo stunning, Melissa! So breathtaking. This must have taken you a long time to create -- its so detailed (even more than your usual beautiful works). :) Thanks for sharing!!
Hi everyone! Melissa here with a China Cabinet by Gina's Lasercuts Designs.
I covered the cabinet in gesso and then applied texture paste over a stencil. I put a coat of pearl metallic acrylic over it, followed by layers of twinkling H20s, watercolors, and lumieres.
I put two coats of crackle on the raised areas, and brown and black chalk to make the cracks show. On the top area and on the drawers I used gloss medium instead of acrylic paint, and that sealed the surface better.
The lavender butterfly at the top is from Reneabouquets. There are a few sequins scattered on the stenciled areas, and also in a bottle, from Abbygirl.
The bottle with the embroidery needles is an antique saltshaker. I bought a few many years ago, and when I did my dh shook his head (probably thinking ,"why did she buy those") haha
There are more photos on my blog,Ribbons, Lace, and Good Intentions
Thanks for looking! Any comments you want to make would be appreciated so much!
