    Waiting for mom to give me permission to redo her swan from the late 80s when shabby chic and farm house was in back then. Loved watching this. I'll show mom. Lol

    Hon just a suggestion from a painter. Dip the end of round brush in paint and dot off on paper then dot your eye in, it’s perfect every time.

    I have been searching for a swan forever and finally found a wood one with the same glass eyes. Still trying to work up the nerve to paint it white! Love the pig too

    • @burghbrat3319
      @burghbrat3319 Рік тому +1

      RE: the eyes, use a really small brush and a very little bit of paint, then pull the strokes out from the eye into the body. It's a bit intimidating but not actually that difficult. I'm probably the world's most clumsy painter but I've had pretty good luck using that technique.

    I had to laugh at your baby poop swan! It brought me back to when I was young. We called baby poop…CaCa!! 🤣😂 Great job on all the pieces but my fave was the flying pig. It’s amazing how when we are not sure during the learning process and it turns out awesome!!

    I can't pass up animals in a thrift store, either. I recently made over 2 bunnies and put them out in the garden and I think the REAL bunnies living under our patio took that as permission to munch the plants! I can't even be mad, they're too cute and so much fun to watch.

    @lisasmart1929 Рік тому +1

    Use the bottom of your paint brush you were using to try for the eyes….dip the end into paint and use it for a perfect dot for the eye….
    The bigger craft paint brush has a bigger dot area….smaller brush has smaller dot area….
