This is what it looked like after I removed the plastic. I allowed it to dry and then I used a matte spray laquere to seal.
I wanted the peek-a-boo effect and that was going to require a layer of SPiT over what was already there. So I thought I sealed it so that when I added another layer it wouldn’t combine with what was already there. I then grabbed the solid color I wanted the outside to be.
What I didn’t take into account was even though I sealed it I was putting a darker color over the lighter colors so it took away some of the brightness. I added 3 coats of Peacock and then when it dried I sealed it with Plutonium Gloss Sealer. So although it didn’t turn out as I envisioned I think it is going to look beautiful on any counter or table!
Even though the colors didn’t hold out like I wanted to it still gives it a 3 dimensional effect and a “surprise” inside! 🙂
