Altered Lantern

Hi everyone, i'm back again..... 

   Here is one of my new creation I finished putting together today. I found this hanging Lantern with the stand near my home at shopping mall, I bought this cute white lantern for 250/- and even though it looks great with a candle inside I knew I wanted to alter it! I love Home goods and sure wish we had one here! 

 

 I added a sweet little baby angel in the middle. I also added some red, pink, white and yellow shades blossoms. I also used some lace for background design 

 

At first I painted with white gesso (Prima), After drying i added a little Modeling paste (Prima) mixing with white sand (Prima), which made nice texture look. I liked it but it wasn't what I was looking for. So I mixed some more white gesso with mini art stones (Prima) and start coloring with mica powder (Prima Lipstick). Then I used my walnut distress ink to edges  it down a bit just in spots. And i used Lindy's gold shade spray to Lantern corner.   

 

 

As you can see I painted part of it a inka gold color, its dry brushed color and that seem to give it a patina look. 

 

I had so much fun altering this one, I hope you like how I did this one. 

Thanks for stopping by and ya'll have a Blessed evening! 

 Hugs, Suzna
