HOW TO MAKE A DIY ACRYLIC PAINT POUR NECKLACE – An Easy and FUN Tutorial!

Hi 👋🏼 I thought it was time that I showed you how I make my paint pour necklaces. These are SUPER EASY and FUN to make and the results are STUNNING! This is a terrific handmade fluid art gift idea for your friends and family!

{NOTE: An alternate way to create acrylic paint pouring necklaces and jewelry is to use acrylic skins. Here is a quick video on how I create my acrylic paint skins: https://youtu.be/KDnqkVTyVcQ . With these skins, you will glue the dried acrylic skin to the bezel and then glue the glass cabochon onto the skin. Easy!)

Simple Doodle Art Embellishing on Paint Pouring Canvas Art

Hi👋🏼 I LOVE Acrylic Paint Pouring, but sometimes the designs need a little more to finish the story the art is trying to tell. Being a child of the ’80s, doodling has been a long-time practice of mine (especially during history class in high school, lol!)

I am very excited to share with you my Ice Princess! I had so much fun making her, and I thought you would love to make her, also! I have created an online tutorial course on www.PaintPourAcademy.com. This course includes the template I created for this project, a downloadable workbook to guide you along the way, and my doodle practice sheets so you can learn this art before you work on your original Paint pour canvas art.

This doodle art project will make a treasured fluid art gift!

Resin Glass Vase with Dimensional Paint and Alcohol Ink

Hi👋🏼 Welcome to my art studio (A.K.A my spare bedroom!) Have I told you how much I LOVE to pour resin on glass vases? I thought I would try something a little different this time.

Easy Silhouette Paint Pouring: Horse

Hi 👋🏼I have been seeing some beautiful paint pour silhouette horse projects posted in some of my Facebook groups and I really wanted to try this technique for myself. I am glad I did… this was a super fun project!

I premixed my paints to a fluid consistency and then I added the paint in various ways including using a small, plastic palette knife that worked beautifully. Not only has it allowed me to swipe the colors it is letting me add some accent lines by using the tip of this palette knife. I do recommend you have a small variety of pallet knives in your collection. This will help you achieve some beautiful and original effects in your masterpieces.

Creating a paint pour silhouette horse will make a unique fluid art gift for your family and friends.

How to make a Resin Clutch Purse

Hi 👋🏼 I am having so much fun creating fluid art purses and tote bags that I decided to try a resin clutch bag version. I found a resin clutch purse mold kit on Amazon.com, and I bought it. When I received it, I realized I needed to purchase a second kit because it only came with one mold, and I wanted to work on the front and the back of the purse simultaneously. I was glad I purchased the second kit!

In this resin clutch tutorial, the molds are similar to the sides of a resin box that will be glued into the frame after the resin has cured. I love the colors I selected for this project, especially the gold flakes resin (gold leaf flakes that I stirred into clear resin). I applied this after I added color to the sides. Then I used the colored resin around the gold leaf resin. It turned out simply beautiful… this is a perfect fluid art gift idea!
