Delta-Perm enamel Clear Gloss Glaze

Any brand of Gold spray paint

Flat latex wall paint, white or off-white

Supplies:

1 quart Kerr/mason jar, with screw top lid. These are available at
Michael's Craft stores.

1- glass voitive pot, shaped like a terra cotta pot

18" x 1" peice of fabric strip

1" or 2" foam brushes

Hot glue gun and glue sticks

Jar preparation: with a foam brush apply the first coat of the latex
wall paint. Let dry overnight or for 8 hrs before applying the second
and third coats. Apply the second and third coats of wall paint.

Spray paint the glass votive pot with gold spray paint, inside and out.
Set aside to dry.

Basecoat the jar and outside of the glass voitve pot with black. Do not
paint the inside of the glass voitve pot with black. After you paint the
outside black you will still be able to see the gold inside
and it will give the pot an antiqued look!

Transfer the pattern onto the jar.

Base the hat with Buttermilk. Shade along top edge, bottom edge and on
all folds with Sable Brown.
