Okay you guys, I have a SUPER simple DIY on the books for today. It’s so simple I’m not even sure we can call this a tutorial, so we won’t. It’s more like a repurposing of sorts–but anywho! I’m loving the hand sculpture home accessories we’re seeing so smartly tucked into interiors lately.
Last week when I was at the craft store picking up supplies for another project, I came across a hand form in the jewelry supplies section intended for ring display, and a light bulb went off to paint it a fun color and use it as a hand sculpture accessory for our living room.
You could definitely leave it black (the way it comes), or use it as a ring stand. Though if you plan to use it as such, make sure to seal the sculpture with a spray varnish to prevent chipping.
Materials: Resin Hand Form + Montana Gold Acrylic Paint, Color: Blue Signal
1. Apply 2-3 coats of spray paint covering the hand completely. Montana Gold bonded beautifully and their range of spray paint color is fantastic!
2. Allow the sculpture to dry. If you plan to use as a home accessory, you’re done and ready to style this sassy number in your home. If you’d like to use as a jewelry stand, seal the sculpture with a spray varnish such as this one.
