Ако ви е писнало да четете за експериментите ми с фолио, обещавам това да е последната публикация... за известно време :) Имам едни дървени мъниста, които почти не съм ползвала. Скорошните ми занимания с алкохолни мастила и златисто фолио ме наведоха на мисълта да опитам и с тях. Понеже бяха много сухи, веднага попиха мастилата. Украсих ги с парченца златисто фолио и многократно лакирах.
If you're tired of reading about my trials with foil, I promise this is going to be my last post... for now :) I've got some wooden beads but haven't used them a lot. My recent trials with alcohol inks and golden foil tempted me to try with the wooden beads. As they were very dry, they quickly absorbed the inks. I decorated them with gold foil and varnished.

Опит с оцветители за смола - до сутринта бяха избледнели. Затова повторих с непрозрачен червен оцветител за смола и лилава "тебеширена" боя за стъкло. Тези ще останат недовършени до следващия път, когато извадя лепилото, лака и фолиото.
Resin tints trial - next morning, the colors had faded away. So I painted them with opaque red resin tint and chalky lavender glass paint. I didn't finish these but I hope it won't be long before I pull out the glue, varnish and foil.
Хубавото е, че използвах някои от тях веднага преди да попълнят запасите ми от типа "може да потрябват". Висулката е от морско стъкло, оцветено с алкохолни мастила и подлепено със златисто фолио.
I'm happy I used some right away before adding them to the "for later" pile. The pendant was made with sea glass that I had colored with alcohol inks and glued gold foil on the back.
Този случай ме подсети за запасите, които не използвам. За някои имам планове, но подозирам, че е само за да убедя себе си да не ги изхвърля. Май трябва да предприема нещо :) Златното фолио остава!
This made me think about my unused stash. I have plans for some of it but I suspect it's only to convince myself to keep it. Looks like I need to take action :) The gold foil stays!
Stunning and luscious, it reminds me of a resin bead necklace that I once had. I wonder why the resin tints faded away. Did you sand or prime the beads with a base before painting them?
ОтговорИзтриванеThank you, Divya! About the resin tints - I guess it has something to do with their properties, they look very diluted. The beads were quite smooth and it never occurred to me to prime them, hum... On the other hand, they absorbed the inks very quickly and there was no mess at all. I've got many of these beads, I may try more methods in the future :)
ИзтриванеThe ones you sealed look like glass! They're superb!!
ОтговорИзтриванеThanks, Hope! It was a lot of work (tedious, too) but it was worth it :)
