This master class will teach how to decorate a hairpin in the technique of decoupage using a one-step craquelure.
I took the following materials for my fantasies:
- Nail polish remover
- Cotton pad
- White acrylic building paint
- Acrylic paints "Sonnet"
- Synthetic brushes
- Foam Sponge in clerical clasp
- Crackle lacquer
- Glue PVA construction-universal
- Fragment of paper napkin with flowers
- Acrylic lacquer Eurotex
- Glue gun with glue rod
- Rhinestones
Stage one: preparatory. The top part of the hairpin is plastic, almost smooth, so for better adhesion to the paint I went over it with sandpaper.Then I wiped it with a disc and nail polish remover.I covered the hairpin with a thin layer of white paint.Stage two: performing a one-step craquelure. To do this, I applied a layer of dark paint to the surface of the hairpin.This layer will contrast with the light, basic one and show through the cracks. Dried.I covered the dark layer with crackle varnish.Dry it, but not completely dry. The varnish should remain slightly sticky. Apply a light layer, running the brush with paint only once on each area of the surface.The paint dried and cracked, and through the lightthe layer is visible dark. Dried until completely dry. Third stage: decoupage of the hairpin. Separated the top layer of the napkin with the pattern and glued it to the prepared surface. First, glued a large fragment with a flower.Then I glued a small fragment to the remaining space and completed the composition.I tinted the edges of the hairpin with bitumen varnish.Thus, I made one more stroke in aging the hairpin. I dried it and covered it with aqua-lacquer.The final stage: decorating with rhinestones. I turned on the gun, waited until the gun heated up, and glued the rhinestones with hot glue, creating an imitation of water droplets on the leaves.Well, the hairpin is ready.
