Happy What\u2019s on Your Workdesk Wednesday<\/a>\u00a0everyone!<\/p>\n

\"2015<\/a><\/p>\n

Sorry I missed the woyww fun last week, but I’m glad to be feeling much better today.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

If you’d like more info on the paint I used, this video is very helpful: How to Use Swelligant with Christi Friesen.<\/a><\/p>\n

In other news, this week another of my classes at CraftArtEdu was released! This is my Ombr\u00e9 Flowers Bracelet class. (For more info see yesterday’s blog post, Learn a New Technique to Create Gorgeous Color<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

You can see a preview of the class over at CraftArtEdu.com.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s all\u00a0I\u2019ve got for this week. If you wonder why I\u2019m sharing a photo of my desk, it\u2019s this fun little blog hop game we play over at Julia\u2019s<\/a> called What\u2019s on Your Workdesk Wednesday<\/a>.
