Art Streamers and More at Red Lead

Painted + Stamped + Stenciled Shapes = Awesome Art Streamers

Art Streamers! We have a really big window in our studio at the store that we love. Lots of light and sunshine is always good for the soul. For the past few months we had an old ladder hanging in the window with art work hodged podged on the ladder. Since we believe change is a good thing yesterday was the day for some creative art making. One thing lead to another and... we had all of the paints, stencils, and stamps out making our art streamers. Once we began to hang them in the window it dawned on us that maybe you would like to make some for your window too! A new Art Streamer Kit was created and you can find it right here.      Art Rocks!   It's amazing what you can do with a little paint and stencils... and So Much Fun to make :)  Check out the Stencils we used: Chevon 4 Birds Soulful Voyage Artful Journey  Leaves 3 Swirls       Make a collage with Art Streamers...lay them down...arrange and glue on a canvas...Great art!    New Wood Word Tags A few of our favorite words engraved on wood tags that are 1" x 2-3/4". Imagine.Wish.Faith.Peace.Inspire.Believe.Create.Dream.         Lightly sand the tags, paint with acrylic paint, let the paint dry, and then lightly drybrush over the first coat of paint so the words really pop out at you.     Dream    Wish     Faith   The little ancestor charms are made by gluing a small photo to a alphabet scrabble tile, topping off with a crystal clear epoxy tile (love these!) and gluing on a small bail with E6000 glue. Last but not least - the HELLO charm is one of our word stamps that I stamped on vintage ledger paper with Ranger Jet Black Archival Ink and punched out with a circle punch. I glued the rubber stamped Hello to a glass cabochon with Diamond Glaze and glued on a bail.                 We're in love with our New & Inspiring Sentiment Stamps!    New Clear-Bit Tag Charms! 2 different size tag charms -  2 each 1-1/2" x 2-1/4" and 2 each 1" x 2-1/4". 4 clear tag charms in all!
