INSTRUCTIONS
- Find plastic animal figures in various sizes, shapes, and kinds.
- For the first animal, paint its entire surface with Carbon using a medium flat brush. Allow to dry.
- For the second animal, paint its entire surface with Keepsake. Allow to dry.
- For the third animal, paint its entire surface with Romance and allow to dry.
- For a black animal, dot on Lace with the handle end of a paintbrush. Allow to dry.
- For a red animal, mask off the bottom half of the animal. (I chose to do the bottom half because my animal was a hippo.) Mask off an area for the last animal. (I chose to mask off the neck because mine was a giraffe.)
- Using a makeup sponge, dab on Gold Matte Metallic. Allow to dry. Paint on a second coat with a medium round brush. Allow to dry and remove tape.
- If your animal is small enough, try dipping its head or feet directly into the Gold Matte Metallic paint jar. It is fun to experiment.
- This project is a fun, metallic addition to any décor.
