Black and Gold Tin For Helmar



Hey Everyone

Every year Aldi have Dutch week and every year I get a tin of Speculaas (Dutch spiced biscuits) they are so yum 
And so I have a tin to use (this is last years tin we haven't finished this years biscuits)



This project is for Helmar 
Make sure you check out the Blog and see what the Design Team have been creating over the month and get some great inspiration from them

I created a YouTube Video of the process it's only a short video so make sure you pop over and watch it and give me a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel I'd really appreciate it xx


I started off by painting the tin with black gesso making sure to cover all the sides and the top
Once it was dry I then used the Memory Maze Door Wire Stencil with some Impasto through it when that dried I painted over it with black gesso

I sprayed the tin with the Helmar Crystal Kote Gloss Varnish so it is nice and shiny (always make sure to use the sprays outside as they have a very strong smell)


I started by sticking the flower doily down with some Helmar Fabric Glue then stuck the metal down with the Craft Glue


I used some Vicki Boutin Word Stickers and also a butterfly and a strip of hearts from the same pack I the Craft Glue to stick all the stickers down to make sure they don't come up


The flowers are from a Prima Pack that a friend gave me and they are perfect for this project


I love metal and have a great stash so I will always find an excuse to use some and the Craft Glue is great for gluing the metal down 
I also used it to stick the flowers, the paper clay and the little glass jar
The glitter in the jar I glued in with the Helmar Gemstone Glue which I also used on the leaf to glue the glitter around the edge


So here you can see the different glues I used 
And here's a link to the Helmar Website where you can find all the different products they sell 
They have a huge range and I'm sure you can find a different product for just about anything you may need


 Thank you for visiting and I hope you will be back soon xx
