How To Alter A Heart Shaped Box

Hi all

In this tutorial you are going to learn how to alter a  heart shaped box using mdf shapes and Decoart acrylic paints.









First of all i painted the box pink and then glued white lace around the top.



Apply texture paste using a stencil mask and leave to set.



Paint a frame in gesso and then paint with a dark red paint


Paint over with Weathered Wood Crackle Medium and leave to dry


Paint over again with the light red paint and let dry



Paint over the box lid with Radiant Red Metallic Lustre.



Use a stencil to add texture to the frame and leave to dry




Paint the mdf word and glue to the frame


Glue frame and love birds to box lid


Decorate with flowers
