DIY Christmas Decor Vignette #17 ~ Elegantly Sumptuous Luxe 4 Less
by Rebecca E. Parsons
The DIY Christmas Decor Vignette #17 and Elegantly Sumptuous Luxe 4 Less idea today is magnolia leaves rimmed in silver. They turned out so amazingly awesome, it is one of my favorites this year.
It is very easy to do…you clip some branches of magnolia leaves and draw around the edges with a silver (or gold) Painters pen. I used one from the Calligraphy pack from Elmer’s. Make sure you shake the pen often and press it down on a scrap of paper in between painting the leaves. This keeps the tip in good shape and the paint flowing well.
outline magnolia leaves with silver Painter's Pen...beautiful!!!
I used them to accentuate almost every vignette…
