You will need:

Rust-Oleum Painter’s Touch paints (small brush pots)
Rust-Oleum artist brushes
Glue gun
Masking tape
Glass picture frame

Step 1

Before starting, protect your work space. Also ensure that the glass in the frame is secure. You may need to use a glue gun to stick the glass in place. Allow the glue to fully dry.

Step 2

Mask the edges of the frame and use a clean, dry cloth to remove any dust from the glass. Once you’ve decided upon your design, if needed, mark out the shape on the glass.

Step 3

Using Rust-Oleum Painter’s Touch, a multi-purpose, water-based paint for interior and exterior projects, paint your design in layers, allowing them to dry between each coat. Start with the leaves in green first, wait for them to dry and then add the details in darker green. Once they’re dry, paint the flowers in a contrasting colour. When your design is fully dry, remove the masking tape.
