MAGIC FLASHLIGHT

Send

Nowadays, owning almost any thing is just a matter of money. You can buy a work of authorship, a collection copy in any city, and it is even easier to order on the Internet. Therefore, those things that are warmed by the warmth of the hands of a loved one will become especially valuable. What we will learn to do in this master class is also warmed by the flame of a candle.
To create a magic flashlight we need:

Ready lamp
Stained glass paints
Stained glass contour
Acetone
Vata
Paper and pencil
Needle or pin

Well and fantasy!

My flashlight-candlestick is very simple, it was bought in Ikea. Stained glass paints can be purchased at a large stationery store. I used PVA-based paints in my work. After drying, the stained-glass window is immediately ready.
Before you begin, you need to determine the recipient of the gift. Maybe you want to give an unusual gift to your loved one? But the child will be delighted with such a miracle flashlight! After all, the lantern will cast colored shadows on the walls and ceiling. The characters you portray on glass will come to life by candlelight. In addition, a unique lantern, made specifically to decorate one of the rooms, will occupy a worthy place in the interior.
Depending on who will be the recipient of the flashlight, choose several scenes that you want to depict on the glass of the flashlight. For each glass, you need to choose one picture. Connect your own imagination, and the Internet will help!
First we create a picture on paper. Of course, the dimensions of the glass must be taken into account. It is desirable that there are no small details in the image: it will be difficult to draw and color them. Each detail of the picture must have a closed loop.
If the design of the lamp allows, it is better to remove the glass. Each needs to be cleaned and wiped with acetone so that no stains remain.

Now transfer the image to the glass. We put paper with a pattern under the glass and a special contour for the stained-glass windows (for me it's just black stained-glass paint), gently circle the picture. Let it dry.

Only after the circuit has completely dried up can you take on colored stained-glass paints. My tubes have a sharp nose, which is very convenient: you do not have to use a brush. When you buy paints, pay attention to this.
We try to fill the entire space with a uniform layer. Work without haste, but not very slowly! Haste will lead to uneven distribution of paint. Slow work will cause ugly stains and bumps on the surface of the picture. If you "climbed" on the circuit, do not worry. After the paint dries, the error will almost not be visible.
There is a little trick. Even the thin nose of the tube can not get into every corner. For "corners" use a needle or a pin.

I advise you not to paint neighboring areas immediately. Especially if they are of different colors. Let the stained glass window dry. This way you avoid mixing colors at the border of areas.
