The Crafty Chica DIY Project Library: a collection of fabulous handmade ideas by Kathy Cano-Murillo, the Crafty Chica! Sunday, July 19, 2009Silk roses coveredi n glass spray paint
Spray paint that is meant for glass. But it works really well on fabric for a translucent, shiny look too. Buy some white silk/faux roses and some spray paint meant for glass. Spray on top of the bunch. Not too close or the paint will drip. I think this would really neat to use different bases flowers with contrasting paint, such as orange flowers with red paint, or purple flowers with blue paint. you could also sprinkle some glitter over the tops while the paint is still wet! ** MY NEW BOOK: "Crafty Chica's Guide to Artful Sewing: Fabu-Low-Sew Ideas for the Everyday Crafter".

You know what this reminds me of? The place in "Alice in Wonderland" where the Queen of Hearts ("knaves?) are painting all of the white roses red, because that is the way the queen wants them. They were half red/half white too. :) And the new "Alice in Wonderland" is coming out too. Good tie in there....

Note to visitors: Hola! This site is the archive of all my past projects for Gannett News Service and The Arizona Republic. These ideas are for personal use only. I make a living as a craft designer, so I will be using these ideas in my published works. If you are thinking of selling or using these ideas for profit, please give respect and "twist" them to make them your own - put your own stamp on them to make them different. It will work out for the best for both of us! Thank you and much respect from one creative person to another! — Kathy Have a burning crafty question? Visit my Ask Crafty Chica blog or drop me a line!
