Painting a Basket With Acrylics

Video Transcript

" Hi! This is Brenda and we are working on our acrylic painting project today. For this project, I have chosen a basket. We’ve got our acrylic paints, our various brushes, a little plastic tray to hold our paints and we are ready to begin. Now I think for this project I am going to paint the top of the handle. I have some coral acrylic paint here, I am just going to draw some little tiny flowers here at the beginning of the basket, like this or at the top of the basket rather, this would kind of look like little rose buds, like that and I am going to go over and make my little leaves, like this. If I wanted to later on, I can go back and actually paint on the basket too. Now the weave of course is a little more difficult to paint on, but you can, now take your time and paint a flower may be on this side like that, let it dry for a couple of hours and then you can put some silk flowers in it or some fruit and there we have the top that made it, just a little more special than, when we began a few minutes ago."
