Green Glass Wreath ⭐️

christmas winter Nov 15, 2023
 

We are making the easiest holiday glass art piece - a green glass wreath! This one requires very minimal painting (just your background) and all of the fun glass goodies you can find. I'll be using lots of green glass as well as tons of miniature Hobby Lobby Christmas stuff and a gorgeous glass flower that I made from a broken ornament. Use what you have and get creative!

I'm going to use Metallic White and Metallic Green for my background. When I use metallics, I like to apply them with a sponge brush because it lays out the metallics really nicely. Start by adding a coat of Metallic White with vertical strokes and then add a little bit of the green, pulling from top to bottom. Dry with a heat tool.

Grab a cup (whatever size you would like the center of your wreath to be). I am using a 16 oz tub that I use for mixing resin. Place it in the middle of your canvas and add handfuls of glass around your cup. I am adding Green Reflective, Solex Reflective, and Solex. Remove your cup.

Use whatever you would like to decorate your wreath! The flower is a busted-up 6” globe ornament from Home Goods. Everything else used to decorate the wreath came from Hobby Lobby miniature Christmas stuff - mini ornaments, candy pieces, beads, and more. Use your imagination and decorate the wreath to your liking!

We're going to elevate our canvas using blocks. Mix 4 ounces of resin and stir gently for three minutes. Pour the resin onto your glass and spread it onto your canvas using your gloved fingers or brush.

Use a heat gun to pop your bubbles. Keep your heat moving at all times! Finally, I'll sprinkle some glass bubbles on my art piece.
