  • Good Friday 2022 – Cross Project!

    Hi everyone! Happy GOOD Friday! Easter weekend is here, can you believe it? The year is whizzing on by so fast! It will be Summer in a minute. I love Easter and I'm excited for all the activities and moments this weekend will bring. I have one final Easter project to share with you before the holiday comes and goes. I made this pretty cross to put in our bedroom. I used my favorite color and some pretty flower transfers. It was a quick and easy project and I love how it came out! 

    I started with a wooden cross from the craft store. I painted it (three coats) with Fusion Mineral Paint in the color Azure. The transfers are the Brocante pack from Iron Orchid Designs. I also used my favorite gold paint for the splatters. Just a few supplies and about two hours. I love projects like this!!

    I wrapped the transfer all the way around to the back of the cross, so it looks pretty from every angle.

    I layered flowers, and butterflies, and some text too. In this pic you can see my gold splatters shimmering in the light.

    This paint goes on like a dream! I like using a sponge/foam brush instead of bristles – just my preference.
