This is the inside of the box. I was gojng for a jewel look inside. This picture dosen't quite show the sparkle effect that the Bijoux Blends have but they catch the light in the most amazing way and give the impression of little sparkling crystals.
I used Puff Paint around the edge of the Bijoux Blends and then painted over it with some Stewart Gill Byzantia Paint which also has a jewel tone quality to it. Puff Paint is great fun to use. Just layer it on and then heat it using a heat gun to puff it up. You can add more layers on top to create a raised effects.

Decorated Paper Mache Box


This is a paper mache box that I have decorated. We've had them in the shop for quite a while and I was always looking at them and wondering how I could decorate them.
After pondering on what to do for a while I eventually decided to use various Stewart Gill Paints, Stewart Gill Poly-Glitter and
Stewart Gill Bijoux Blends. Stewart Gill paints and special effects products can be used in so many different and unusual ways and I had a lot of fun making full use of them to decorate this box.
