Popular Post AkJim Posted November 25, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 I thought I would try something different. I cut this and it looked like it needed color. So I decided to try cutting colored paper and gluing it to the back out the top layer. Then glue it to the backer and coat with spray polyurethane. I think it turned out pretty well. I thought I would share Foxfold, new2woodwrk, FrankEV and 20 others 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankEV Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Very very nice. I did something similar with a dragonfly cutting I did for my Daughter-in-law. Only diference was that I used craft acrylic paints to paint the backer in specific areas. Color certainly adds to the beauty of the finished piece. Really like that overall patern. The fretwork below and above the circle sure adds a lot to the piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally I thought about paint but quickly realized that wasn’t a good idea since I can’t paint a wall in the house without getting paint on everything in the room. Paper was safer for me.
