INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
When the first layer of paint has dried, add a second one. Two applications is enough to achieve an even finish.
I used cylindrical objects of various sizes to lightly pencil in my design for the faces. Two different sized drinking glasses were used to draw the frog's eyes. The end of a paint bottle was used to draw the cheeks. A ruler was used to make the lines for the frog's mouth, and a small bowl was used
- Lightly draw the face design onto outside of the umbrella.
- Use Snow White to fill in the appropriate areas of the eyes, with an angled brush to make clean, curved lines.
- Paint the cheeks with Carousel Pink.
- Use Lamp Black to fill in the mouths and parts of the eyes.
- Paint the frog umbrella with Sour Apple. Paint around the facial features.
