Happy What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday everyone!
Sorry I missed the woyww fun last week, but I’m glad to be feeling much better today.
On my desk are a couple of garden decorations that I’ve had for several years. They’re both resin so the materials will last forever, but the finishes were a mess.
The rock had faded to white and the paint on the butterfly had peeled off, so I decided to see if I could rejuvenate them with some Swelligant metal paints and patinas. I’m rather happy with how they came out.
If you’d like more info on the paint I used, this video is very helpful: How to Use Swelligant with Christi Friesen.
In other news, this week another of my classes at CraftArtEdu was released! This is my Ombré Flowers Bracelet class. (For more info see yesterday’s blog post, Learn a New Technique to Create Gorgeous Color.)
You can see a preview of the class over at CraftArtEdu.com.
That’s all I’ve got for this week. If you wonder why I’m sharing a photo of my desk, it’s this fun little blog hop game we play over at Julia’s called What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday. Join in, all are welcome!
Love the bracelet – Happy WOYWW – BJ#35
Thank you, BJ. Good to see you at woyww again. 🙂
Oh, I love your refurbished pieces. That must mean you’ve started your garden! You or hubby. 😀 Am also glad to hear you’re all well.
Yup, we’re all much better, if not quite 100%.
The garden work has started, as has just sitting outside in the sunshine. Yay!
WOW! Love the bracelet! And glad you’re feeling better. Hope you post a pic of your redone garden accessories! Happy WOYWW!

Thanks for stopping by, Angela!
That bracelet looks awesome! Must take forever to build the bitsy flowers (I checked the link too, love the yellow- orange). Happy woyww!
