Painting window screen Christmas ornaments

Posted by paintedscreens (My Page) on

I'm a screen painter and I have instructions on my website on how to paint a window screen that may be helpful. Use thicker acrylic paint and a dry stiff brush, like a stencil brush. Base coat with a pale color or with white. Dab or spread the paint on gently. Let dry between coats. Place your screen on a black trash bag to help you see what you are painting. See my website for more tips. I'd like to see pictures of the Christmas ornaments.

Great tips, thank you, those are going to be a huge help! I'm looking for the roll of screening my sister gave me to make some decorations with.

You created some wonderful pieces...I love them, they're beautiful!
