Anyone have any staining/painting tips for craft painting on bare wood?
That was hard to put into words. I'm learning onestroke painting. I have some bare wood plaques that I'd like to paint on. When I stain them first the paint hardly shows up (it's folk art acrylic paint) and when I leave them bare the paint shows up fine but the overall look is just plain I guess. I am looking to find some tips from other crafters, ideas of stains or other finishing products to use and what steps I'd take to accomplish this! Hope this is worded well enough! Thanks for any help at all!
It sounds like your stain just may not have a sealer included in with it. If you use a good sealer, then your paint will have a smoother surface to go onto & should show up better. Have you tried using a lighter stain? Or just a sealer over the bare wood? You can even paint directly on the bare wood, then apply the stain OVER your piece & it will look antique, or nicotine stained, like the old tavern pieces from long ago! You could also use your stain as part of your design by carefully omitting the stain on the parts of the wood that you will be painting. By doing this, your painted designs will be sure to stand out brightly from the darker stainded areas. Always finish your piece with a clear sealer. Spray Artist Clear will give you a smooth finish & protect your delicate brush work!
