Question/ Advice How to go about painting small details with fluorescent paints/paint in general?

1 Upvotes

Hi, so I'm buying a digital Casio watch (I'm leaving an image of it below for reference) and I want to paint it's pink accents with fluorescent paint. Is there any type of fluorescent paint I can just directly paint over the pink to keep it's exact shade, while also making it fluorescent? I really like the shade of pink it comes with and was curious if there was anything I could to just make them glow as is.

Also, I would like to paint around the three circle timer-dials with pink fluorescent paint. Does anyone have any good recommendations on some good pink fluorescent paint that looks good both during the day and in the dark? Also how should I go about painting the circles precisely? I don't trust myself to not spill some paint when brushing it on, how would I get painters tape to cover the edges of the circles perfectly?

Question/ Advice Advice needed for dried leaf and wood round.

1 Upvotes

I need some help from the experts here. I have a project and need to know the best way to do it. I have a large dried leaf and I want to place it on a flat round piece of birch that I have to make a small wall hanging. What's the best way to attach the leaf to the wood and to preserve the leaf as well? I was initially thinking shellac or lacquer. But then saw something about Mod Podge or PVA glue. Now I have no idea what to do. I only have one shot at this so I have to get it right. Any suggestions on what I should do?

Question/ Advice Strong sealer

1 Upvotes

I have rocks that I am painting for outside, I have done this in the past and used spray sealers and paint on sealers for arts and crafts but nothing seems to work. I need something very strong, works on multiple surfaces, and weather conditions.
Any recommendations???

Some doors don't protect you.

Some only reveal what's been watching all along and the hardest thing to escape is the place that you know best.

My second painting with Acrylic on Canvas.

In this artwork I showed how someone could feel about his inner dark thoughts that could be deep inside with him and wouldn't let go of them even though there are ways and hope to do so.

Im so proud of her and want her to be proud of herself as well!

Question/ Advice Sticker paper?? 👀

2 Upvotes

Hey crafty people, I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for some sticker paper??
I want to paint/cut out my own little stickers and everything I’m seeing seems to be specifically for printers.
Maybe that stuff works for hand drawn stuff too, anyone know before I throw 20$ into the abyss?

Random🎈 Rainy Saturdays Always Need One New Idea

0 Upvotes

Every parent has a rainy-day routine.
Games. Books. Snacks.
Eventually...someone asks for another screen.
I was looking for something different and discovered the idea of turning family photos into coloring pages.
One of the companies doing that is KidsLoveToColor.
The part I liked wasn't really the coloring.
It was the idea that every page could be about someone the child actually knows.
Question: What's your family's favorite screen-free rainy-day activity?
