1st of the month at Altered Eclectic

 Its the first of the month and that means a new challenge at

 Altered Eclectic

as always its anything goes

I decided to alter a watch tin I picked up at the local amenity site

1. I first painted the top with black gesso, then covered it with plenty kitchen roll.

2. I covered the side in pva glue and covered that with kitchen roll.

3. I then painted lid and base with black gesso 

4. I then left it outside to dry.

5. Once dry I used some Peebo silver gilding wax on a stencil brush to age the outer edges and pick up some of the pattern.

7. I then decorated it with some of my paper flowers I have had for years, using red,black and cream, brads and finished off with gems and ribbon.

Many thanks for calling by

I hope you like my work
