Magical autumn decorations: design your own autumn sign
Step 1: Paint your sign with autumn colours
Start by painting your sign as desired with VBS craft paints. These colours are known for their luminosity and versatility. Grab a brush and let your creativity run wild. Whether it's vibrant reds, warm shades of orange or muted browns - the choice is yours.
Step 2: Create colour gradients with the sponge
Colour gradients give your sign a special depth and dynamism. Use a sponge to gently dab the colours and let them flow into each other. You can moisten the sponge slightly to blend the colours better and create a smooth transition. Experiment with different pressure levels and movements until you are happy with the result.
Step 3: Wait for the colours to dry
Once you have finished painting, it is important to allow the sign to dry completely. This gives the colour the opportunity to set optimally and prevents smudging as you continue working. Allow enough time so that you get a perfect result.
Step 4: Attach the string
Now it's time to loop the sign. To do this, tie a string to your sign at the designated point. Make sure that the knots are tight so that the sign hangs securely. The string gives your work of art a rustic charm and makes it ready to be looped in a suitable place as decoration.
