Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Melody again on behalf of Expert Village this segment I'm going to show you how to paint just something really simple using a stippling brush which this is similar you could actually buy one that says stippling brush on it at your craft store. We are going to use a little bit of acyclic metallic gold paint. Now normally if you are going to be doing a full design or a very large pattern you want to tape this stencil to your item this just happens to be my own box of stuff and I thought I would demonstrate just a couple of little stars for your to give you a idea of how this is so easy and how it would look when it is finish. The main thing is taping it would keep it from moving around and that is the what you want to do is keep it from moving it around. Alright get some paint on your brush and dab it onto the stencil filling the space where the part is where you are doing is open and I just moved this which is a very bad no no it would smear the design and that is why taping it is a really good idea. Now you could just leave it there until it is dry or in a case of use wanting to show you quickly I'm going to go ahead and risk of pulling it off and see what happens. There we go now see this is where from I moved it just blotch it all up you are not going to have that problem because you are going to use tape to hold your stencil to your item. In this case that I did miss it up I will be able to take it off and redo it. In our next segment I'm going to be showing you how to use some more stickers and applicate to make boring household things more less boring. "
