Matte Black
Materials Needed:
Ornate Mirror (12” x 18” purchased at JoAnn’s)
Mistick

Vinyl colors shown:
Terra Cotta
Materials Needed:
MDF Board-Pre drilled-White
7 wooden clothes pins
Fabric dye in various colors (can be purchased at fabric stores)
Multi-purpose wood glue
 
Instructions:
Begin by dying each clothespin in various colors. I used 5 different colors in 5 different containers. I used soup cans and bottles as the dye will stain plastic cups. Add 1 tsp. of dye to each container. Boil a medium size pan full of water. Fill each container about 2/3 full of boiling water. Drop clothes pins into the containers using tongs. Wait about 10 minutes, or until desired color is reached. Remove the clothes pins with the tongs and let them dry on newspaper or foil. Once the clothes pins are dry, adhere them to the pre drilled board using the wood glue spaced about 2 inches apart. Prep and apply the expression.
