CAT BOOKENDS PAINT YOUR OWN TRIAL
I have learned through trial and error that if you go slow and allow parts to dry before moving to the next section, the overall painting turns out so much better.Īnd…best part…if I ever want these bookends to be plain, well I can just turn the around. I am by no means an artist, but I simply painted a flower and then added stems and leaves. Once I painted the little flower, I chose some DecoArt Americana Acrylic Paintsto add the leaves and stems. I also used this rich Bittersweet Americana Multi-Surface Satin Paint to paint the center of the flower. When the cat on the other side of the river saw the warm light from the bookstore. It is just the right bit of orange and red. Get your own detail-oriented and well-furnished tiny bookends. The main color of the flower is this beautiful Shrimp Americana Multi-Surface Satin Paint. I used a simple foam paint brush and painted on 2 coats of the multi-surface satin paint, allowing the first coat to dry fully before applying the second coat. I chose this beautiful and very vintage feeling Battleship Americana Multi-Surface Satin Paintto use for the main color. I picked this one up at a local home improvement center. Let me share with you what you need to create your own bookends… Don’t you just love the colors of the simple flower I painted? Secretly, Jane Eyre was always a favorite of mine. The worn edges of these books contrast perfectly with the freshly painted wooden corbels. I love it when you can turn something that has a completely different use into the perfect home decor accent. The subtle colors and sweet floral pattern painted on these simple wooden corbels turned out fabulous. 4 books in 1…what is better than that? So I decided to display a few in my own home and created these vintage inspired Painted Wooden Corbel Bookends to hold them in place. They were mesmerizing in all the bright colors and patterns. The big band music that was always playing on a turntable, her in the kitchen baking, and books….lots of books! They had a little round bookshelf that held all these Reader’s Digest Collection books. For me, my grandparent’s house held a lot of incredible memories. Sometimes a craft project is inspired by a memory from your childhood.
