INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: Let dry completely between painting steps.

1. Sand the box surface to remove any rough areas. Use a damp paper towel to remove dust.
2. Paint the entire surface in Carbon using a 2" flat brush. (If the surface being used is already dark, omit this step.)
3. Paint the entire surface in Remembrance using a 2" flat brush.
4. Using a 1" flat brush, apply Promise to the lid in stripes. (The stripes do not have to be perfectly straight, if you are going for a rustic look. If clean lines are desired, use painter's tape.)
5. Position the monogram stencil (shown: Sleek). Using a cosmetic sponge, apply Carbon.
6. Position the flourish stencil of choice next to the monogram. Use a cosmetic sponge to apply Carbon.
7. Using sandpaper, sand back some of Remembrance allowing Carbon to show through.
