Looking for a one-of-a-kind pumpkin project this fall? We're creating a bold, wild, and totally fun foil pumpkin art piece that combines a mix of vibrant foils, metallic paints, and glass and resin. I’m here to walk you through every step - from tracing your pumpkin to adding those stunning foils and finishing off with a glossy resin coat.

Start by painting your canvas with two coats of black acrylic paint. Then, lightly sand it with sandpaper to create a smooth finish. Let dry.

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place white graphite paper underneath, and trace your pumpkin with a stylus.

Decide where to place each type of foil on your pumpkin. I will apply a leopard print foil to two different sections, so I'll paint those with Metallic Black acrylic paint. I'll paint the rest of my pumpkin sections with a mix of Metallics Pearl Fruit Punch, Metallics Peacock Pearl, Scarlet (orange), and white paint. I'll also paint the stem with Metallics Festive Green. Dry with...

I'm thrilled to be joined by two incredible guest artists - Christie Hawkins from The Social Easel and Kasey Hope with P'zazz Art Studio. Together, we're crafting textured metallic pumpkins on a 6x6 canvas, perfect for adding a festive touch to your fall decor. Not only are these pumpkins adorable and super easy to make, but I'm also giving mine a unique twist by incorporating beachy elements like mini shells, starfish, Starfire glass, and seed beads. 

We are going to use modeling paint to create a textured pumpkin! Load a palette knife with modeling paste, make a large circle, and then create sections on each side in a "parenthesis" shape. Add your stem as well. Let dry for an hour or two.

I'll paint my pumpkin with Metallic Peal paint and blend in Metallic Ice Blue. I'll paint my background with Metallic Rose Shimmer and use dark pink to go around my pumpkin to create a shadow. I'll also paint the stem with Metallic Gold. 

Take the flat side of your brush and...

I'm sharing how to make this creative glass art project where we’ll be painting a bright and cheerful lemon-themed piece. I’ll walk you through each step, from tracing the lemons onto your canvas to adding vibrant colors and finishing touches with glass bottle rings. This tutorial is perfect for anyone, whether you're a seasoned artist or just starting out!

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace your lemons with a stylus. You don't have to trace all of the details, but just the shape of your lemons.

Next, we will paint our background with a blend of Desert Turquoise, Bahama Blue, and white paint, making sure to go around our lemons. Paint the sides of your canvas too, and dry with a heat tool.

Paint your leaf with a basecoat of Hauser Green Light. Dry it with a heat tool and add a second coat of paint. Add shadows with Plantation Pine and highlights with white paint. 

Now, let's work on our lemons!...

In this tutorial, we're creating a fun football-themed glass art project! We'll start by painting a vibrant green field, then add details like a football and field lines. I'll show you how to mix colors, trace your design, and finish it off with some sparkly glass pieces and resin. Whether you're new to this or have some experience, this is a great way to try out some new techniques and create something amazing!

Start by painting the bottom of your canvas with Holly Green. Add two coats to your canvas, and dry it with a heat tool between coats. I'll also blend in a little bit of white paint.

Next, I'll paint the top part of my canvas with Holly Green mixed with white paint to create a lighter green.  I'll also dab in some darker green on top to create some dimension. Dry with a heat tool.

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace the football, field lines, and upright with a stylus.

For this tutorial, we have two designs: "Cheers" with martini glasses, and "Happy Hour" with various drink glasses. Sketch our your drink glasses with a permanent pen along with writing the words "Cheers" and "Happy Hour". 

To add a splash of color to your designs, consider painting the back of your sea glass pieces. Use acrylic paints in colors like yellow, green, and pink...

Join me for a fun and creative summer pineapple art tutorial! I'll guide you through painting a vibrant background with a paisley stencil design, adding colorful details to your pineapple, and embellishing with yellow and green glass pieces. Finish it off with a glossy resin coat and sparkling acrylic bubbles. This project is perfect for beginners and will add a tropical touch to your home decor!

For my background, I want to have something for the pineapple to sit on. Take a pencil and sketch a diagonal line across the bottom area of your canvas to create a surface for your pineapple. I'll take a 1-inch flat paintbrush and add white paint to the bottom area. Next, I'll blend in Calypso Blue. 

Then, I'll add white paint to the top portion of my canvas. Add "Xs" of Calypso Blue and Windsor Blue paint. I'll also add in a little bit of Hauser Light Green. Dry with a heat tool. 

I want to have something different on the wall in my background, so I'll use a paisley stencil...

Join me for a fun Christmas in July glass and resin art tutorial! We’re making a cute summer snowman on the beach using acrylic paint, mini starfish, starfire glass, small shells, and beads. This easy project is perfect for adding a touch of holiday cheer to your summer decor!

We are going to start by painting our background with a sandy beach on the bottom and a night sky on the top. Make a tick mark about 3 inches from the bottom. Paint this bottom area with Bleached Sand paint. Dry with a heat tool.

Next, cover this with painter's tape and we'll work on the top portion of the canvas. Paint a circular swirl of white paint in the center of your canvas. Blend in Bleached Sand, making the circle bigger. I'll do the same thing with Midnight Garden and Deep Midnight Blue. Swirl in some more white and Bleached Sand to bring it all together. Dry with a heat tool and remove the painter's tape.

Add a second coat of Bleached Sand to your bottom area, blending in some white paint...

I'm going to start by dividing my canvas into thirds - the sky, water, and sand. I'll use Sugared Peach to paint the bottom third of my canvas, using the flat edge of a large brush from left to right. Don't cover it completely, but leave some empty areas of your canvas for other colors. Grab some Oyster White and white paint and add those two colors in too. I'll also barely swish in gray paint on the two sides. 

Next, we'll work on the sky. Turn your canvas upside down to make this easier! I'll add Spa Blue, white, and gray paint using the same...

For this art piece, I had been experimenting with crackle and came up with this background. I am using an 8x10 wooden frame that I painted with Tropical Blue, added Elmer's glue for crackle, and then painted another coat of Tropical Blue on top.

Next, I found some white sheet glass that I had cut into flower petals with my wheeled nippers. You will want to do this with gloves and eye protection on! I also have two cut pieces of green vase glass for the leaves.

We are going to mix our resin first, then start creating our flower by layering the glass flower petals. We will add...

Discover the joy of creating a glass dragonfly art piece on a painted dot background! This fun and easy project is perfect for beginners. Learn to paint the dotted background and add a glass bead strand for the body, broken vase glass pieces for the wings, a bead for the head, and acrylic bubbles for that finishing touch!

Apply a thin coat of white paint over the entire canvas. This helps to blend other colors and gives a soft background. Squeeze out small amounts of Seashell (pastel pink), Buttercream (yellow), Wild Wasabi (green), Winter Blue (purple-blue), Spa Blue (sky blue), and white onto your palette.

Use a dotting tool to dip into Buttercream and make dots randomly across the canvas. Apply light pressure and twist slightly to form your dots. Clean the dotting tool between colors. Repeat the dotting technique with Seashell, Wild Wasabi, Winter Blue, and Spa Blue, allowing some overlap. Mix white with each color and dot around the original colors to create a...
