Think outside the box

Elkika is the master of this. Thinking outside the box. Just look at these old boxes she redesigned for their hall. I love the contrast between wood and paint, it makes such cool patterns. Why do everyone try to hide wood behind paint nowadays? 


This is how she did it.

• Cut out the shape you want to highlight. She made triangles from foil. I guess you van use tape too, but then you must be careful when painting. 
• Put the foil where you want the wood to show.
• Use a sponge to put on paint around the foil. 
• Paint the box elsewhere. 
• Remove the foil. Tata!
