Decoupaged Spring Pedestal Bowl
This project just reminds me of Spring 🐦
It began with a simple wooden bowl and an experiment.
The experiment was with vintage sewing patterns.
I've seen projects made with patterns before and I love the color and the look so I'm giving it a try.
I haven't used a sewing pattern in 40 years so these really brought back memories of the days I made a lot of my clothes.
I began by painting Mod Podge glossy finish all over the bottom of the wooden bowl.
I cut large pieces of the pattern and laid it onto the wet Mod Podge.
And then I went to bed wondering if this little decoupage experiment was going to work at all.
Before I even reached for my first cup of coffee I checked on my bowl.
Oh boy was I ever thrilled!
This was better than I even expected!
It almost looked like shiny brown paper which is a great look with the blue I chose.
I got to finishing my project with renewed enthusiasm!
I painted the candlestick and the inside of the bowl with Provence a pretty Spring Annie Sloan Chalk Paint color.
I drilled a hole in the bowl so I could attach the bowl to the candlestick with E6000 glue and a screw.
When the paint dried I gave the whole piece a coat of Fusion Mineral Paint's Tough Coat.
