INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
Let dry completely between painting steps.
- Lightly sand the entire surface of the wooden tote. Wipe away any sanding dust with a clean cloth.
- On one side the tote, place masking tape in a design of diagonal stripes. (See photo.)
- Apply Bright Gold (Metallic) or any color of Americana Decor Texture vertically along the open areas. (See photo.)
- Apply the texture slightly over the tape so that when the tape is removed, there will be a clean line. Remove the tape while the paint is still wet. Let dry completely.
- Paint the entire surface of the wooden tote with Ultra Black Basecoat. Allow to dry. Paint the textured stripes with Gold and the smooth stripes with Violet.
- On the reverse side of the tote, draw a simple design using rounded shapes with a pencil. Paint the shapes with Gold, Blue, Violet, Green, and White. Paint the inside and sides of the tote with Gold.
