Wooden Clock

 Given by a friend this beautiful but forgotten pine clock has been restored.
I've used black, grey and silver paint. I've applied different colours with a time gaps to let each coat to dry. I've used 180 sanding paper to blend the colours together. Hope you like the effect...

wooden box - step by step

* first I've painted the edges with black paint, then with the lilac one....
* when dried I've painted the whole box with the white paint...
* when dried I've sanded gently with the sandpaper (240/280).....
* the handwriting was the laser-printed image which I transferred with the Medium Transfer Gel (there're many to choose from....just google) on top of the sanded lid...
* the image of the lady was cut out from the napkin and glued on the sanded box (special glue for decoupage)...
* all box was covered with a few layers of satin varnish (sanded between every layer/320 sandpaper)

and this one:
black paint on the edges
+white one all over the box
+sanded
+roses from napkins
+varnish
and this one but:
the lid has been covered with a wallpaper and varnished...
