Wall Hanging Craft Ideas

Craft: Craft Project: Scenic Window

Debby

September 15, 2008

Make your own scenes outside your "window". If you don't have a window, just paint one! I love beach and lighthouse scenes. So, I made my window looking out at a lighthouse.

Approximate Time

Supplies:

• large oval wooden plaque
• acrylic paints
• clear satin spray sealer
• paint brushes
• picture hanger for back

Instructions:

1. Paint the plaque with a sealer such as Kilz.
2. Draw your "window frame" around the outside of the plaque.
3. Paint frame in white or brown to match your molding.
4. Draw out and paint your scene.
5. Draw a cross through the middle of the oval, making sure it is centered.
6. Enlarge the cross to the same size "pieces" as the outside of your "window frame." Paint in white or brown.
7. Use a gray or dark brown, depending on your molding color, make shadows on the inside of your frame. Also on the cross to make it look like the pieces are joined. This gives it depth and makes it look more real.
8. Spray with the clear sealer.
9. Affix picture hanger on back side.
