I've been busy doing nothing, aka summer holiday.
Had some fabolous weeks off work, travelling both to Mallorca and here in Norway.
My latest project is a redesigned bottle from Ikea. (the content was some juice, but that's all gone)

First I covered the bottle with a coat of black Gesso.
Next I used Finnabair's awesome Art Alchemy acrylic metallic paint.
After all was dry I used some molding paste and a stencil.
Next covered part of the bottle with old buttons, laces , findings, metal pieces , flowers etc.
Covered the whole thing with black gesso and so came the fun part, going wild with the metallic paint again.
Really loved the result! (my hubby wondered if I had been seeing Pirates of the Carribean again, because it looked like some of the old treasures in the films LOL)

Marianne - no matter what type of piece you create - I always love your gorgeous art. Your bottle, especially because of the colors and textures, really calls to me. And, your husband is right - it looks like it might have been pulled from a pirate's sunken ship - wonderful!
