I am excited to continue my partnership with Testors and Rust-Oleum sharing new projects each month! This month we are getting ready for Halloween and I tried out Testors Aerosol Color Shift and I was amazed at the results! It was the perfect spooky addition!
Materials:
- Testors Color Shift in Green Copper
- Testors Craft Acrylic Paint in Black, Gold Rush Glitter Burst, Gold, Purple and Coffee
- Testors Craft Metallic Paint Pens
- (2) 18"x30" Foam Boards
- Craft Knife/Box Cutter
- Paint Brush
- Hot Glue or Industrial Glue
- Ribbon and Halloween Fluff
- Twine
- Tape
- Scissors
- Purple Glitter
- Free Downloadable Templates
Directions:
- Download and print the templates (link above).
- Layout the papers and tape together. Cut out each template.
- Trace the templates on the foam board and cut out with the craft knife/box cutter.
- Paint the hat pieces black. Once the black hat pieces are dry we will spray on the Color Shift. A base coat helps create the color shift effect.
- Paint the buckle purple, once dry paint on a coat of Gold Rush Glitter Burst. While it is still wet sprinkle on purple glitter.
- Paint the moon Gold. Once dry paint a coat of Glitter Burst.
- Paint the broom with Gold and Coffee paint.
- Paint the bat with black paint.
- Add a face to the bat, texture lines to the brooms with the Paint Pens.
- Read the safety instructions on the Testors Color Shift can. Make sure you are in a well-ventilated room or outdoors.
- Spray a light coat of the Color Shift over the hat parts holding the can about 12 inches away and using sweeping motions. Once dry do a second coat. You can see the amazing effect right away!
- Once all the pieces are dry glue them together adding ribbon and Halloween fluff.
- The last step is to glue on a piece of twine so you can hang the witches hat.
- If you plan to hang on your front door apply a weather-proofing top coat.
I love how this turned out!! The Color Shift adds the perfect spooky effect!
