Today's master class will surely pleaselovers of original decor. The process of working on the author's masterpiece, which we will talk about, will reveal new facets of your creative nature, and the result will amaze your household. So, we suggest you combine two decorative concepts: "false window" and "monogram". It would seem that what could be common between a popular interior technique and the habit of personalizing things? Well, here's what.
This is the original way to display your initials or any other symbols that are important to you. To make such a decoration, you will need:
- An old window with a wooden frame;
- sandpaper;
- wiper;
- Adhesive tape;
- scissors;
- Paint (in our example - white and gold) and a brush;
- Chains, screws and hooks (to create a suspension system).
Step one is to prepare the window. It doesn’t matter how old and dirty it is. The main thing is that its structure is strong enough.
Wash away any dirt, cobwebs, or anything else that's stuck on,using a garden hose. Then, treat the window with a soapy solution. Wait until the frame dries and sand it to restore the wood's natural color. Then print out letters with your initials or any other symbols you want to immortalize in the interior. Using tape, stick them to the front of the glass - they will serve as stencils.
It is better to apply paint from the back side of the product: this way you will be able to achieve a more aesthetically pleasing painting. Start with the contours.
It is recommended to use acrylic paint. Painting on glass is not easy, so you will most likely need to apply several layers of paint to achieve the desired result.
Wait until the outlines dry and start applying the base color. Don't forget that for the perfect result you need to paint the same parts several times.
Now all that's left to do is:it is necessary to make a fastening system. In our case, the choice fell on a chain, which was fixed to the frame with the help of ordinary hooks. However, you can easily follow your imagination and come up with something like that!
