Fuchsia's Crafty Notions

well here is my mirror. First I gesso the frame and paint with titanium white acrylic next I pick out the colours from the mosaic tiles and sponge the frame using Lumière's pearl blue mixed with pearl white plus halo gold and then metallic bronze mixed with pearl violet,when dry I coated with matt varnish . Chipboard letters were then dipped in the melting pot using Utee and flex and assorted embossing powders and then stamped into.I then brushed over them with perfect pearls . Marine life was made using Fimo and moulds and also brushed with perfect pearls. When gluing on the letters please make sure the Mirror is up the right way like what I did LOL or you will have to re-string the back. I really like the finished mirror I hope you do too . Thanks for stopping by xx

Have had an eventful week My lovely son and his girlfriend have gotten engaged while they are holidaying in Canada so that was lovely . Plus we are in the middle of decorating the bathroom it all has to be retiled and painted before Friday when they get home and of course we are having a party that weekend too . I have started to alter the bathroom Mirror it was antique pine but that has totally gone and last night decided to get my melting pot out to do some chipboard letters and the little ******s got stuck to my fingers so I am nursing very sore fingers today and a blister the size of a smartie on my thumb Ouch !!!! But the mirror is coming along nicely and will be on here soon . Right back to the bathroom ! thanks for passing by x

Made this huge lovely Pizza for the homestead and cant eat it as I gained just 6lbs thinking about it I was assured it was delicious though ! Starting to craft again had a little blip with my Thyroid among other things but am starting to rise above it all . Just wish Summer would make its mind up when it is appearing . Thank you for passing by x
