Instructions

  1. Small dsc 0006 1324586696

    Lay a light colored flat bed sheet on ground (white or ivory recommended). Pinch the center and twist wrist clockwise to form a small circle.

  2. Small dsc 0026 1324586779

    Using the same twisting motion as in step one, surround the large middle twist with a bunch of small twists.

  3. Small dsc 0034 1324586809

    Tips: to minimize paint splatter, start spraying in one motion on a paper towel then move the spray onto the project for painting. Cover large middle twist with first color. Using the same spray motion, spray around the first large twist with a different color to create a bulls-eye effect (experiment with gathering the sheet in any pattern or direction you want).

  4. Small dsc 0064 1324586879

    Repeat step 3 on all of the surrounding smaller twists.

  5. Small dsc 0069 1324586952

    Spread sheet out and lightly mist the remaining white or ivory areas using the same colors and allow to dry for at least 30 minutes.

  6. Small dsc 0074 1324586974

    Once completely dry, cut the large sheet into individual pieces for wrapping
