    INSTRUCTIONS

    NOTES:

    Let dry completely between painting steps.

    1. Make sure the bucket is clean and dust free.
    2. Use a flat brush and Cool White to paint the entire bucket. Rinse brush. Let completely dry.
    3. Use sandpaper to distress the bucket as much or little as you would like. Wipe clean with a damp paper towel.
    4. Place the starfish from the Sea Life Stencil around the bottom section to make a border (Remove the circle to use as a stencil and place firmly on the bucket, making sure there are no crease or air bubbles.)
    5. Load a cosmetic sponge with Baby Blue and pounce until the star stencil is completely coated. Remove the stencil and continue around the entire bottom perimeter. Wash stencil at end. Let dry completely.
    6. Once dry, spray with Americana Matte Spray Finish.
