I made this second Dragon Box for my wonderful friend Pam, who put up our family when we visited the US over the summer. We had the most fabulous time that went by all too fast.
The wooden box is 7"x 4" (18cm x 10cm)
1. I started by removing the metal hardware and then passing texture paste though AALL & Create stencil #48
2. Once that was all dry, I painted the box creating an ombre effect using Prima Art Alchemy acrylic paints in Emerald Green and Mermaid Teal.
3. I painted the inside of the box with DecoArt Metallic acrylic paint in Peacock Pearl.
4.To finish the box I reattached the hardware and rubbed some Pebeo Silver Gilding Wax on the box and metal work.
2. I fixed the dragon to the box with Prima 3D Matt Gel and gave it a silver Celtic Cross to guard.
3. I tucked some pearls and gems behind the dragon with the Matt Gel.
4. I finished the box with more gems and pearls around the front of the dragon.
