I. Y. Or craft store. A triangular ruler a straight ruler and a pen. And you also need a sponge paper towels and some scissors. Plus a transparent and round cream wax from the d. I. Y. Store a small pot to thin the brown wax in and of brush. First add a small amount of water to the brown wax to make it spreadable stir with the brush and apply evenly on all sides. Also cover the cut surfaces. Once the wood is dry that takes around thirty minutes take the first board and use the triangular ruler and a pen to draw two triangles whose tips connect. Then apply the sticky tape along the insides of the triangle pattern. Measure the distance to the next triangle measure one point five centimeters between the individual triangles make sure the lines run parallel thats important for the pattern use this method to create the entire pattern stick tape to the cut surfaces stick to wide strips of tape onto the second board with a distance of five centimeters between use the design for oil to give the last board as zigzag pattern. Mark the spikes inside with a pen and ruler and cut out the pattern with the scissors the patterns here are around six point five centimeters wide then attach a wide strip of sticky tape to the middle of the board. Stick the design forward to the edges. Then add a row of spikes with a distance of two centimeters they must face one another. Press the tape and the foil firmly so no paint can get underneath also stick tape to the edges. Now the three boards are ready for painting. Stretch a rubber band across the painting to wipe off excess paint then use the brush to paint the free spaces on the wooden boards. If you want different facts use a piece of the sponge and dip it into the paint. Then dab it on the paper towel and then on the empty spaces. The irregular look gives it a vintage feel. Like to paint dry before removing this sticky tape. If theres any paint left under the table use a sharp object like the blade of a knife to scratch it off. Finally add the transparent wax to seal and avoid scratches. You can have to differ and. Depending. And that was a bit too far if you want to see that video again are all the interesting d. I. Y.
