So yes, the same that you paint on the walls inside your house. Good luck!<br /><br />Becky@DoodleBugOnlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763918737667531018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040211037720460890.post-48689151179698413002016-03-30T16:12:59.770-05:002016-03-30T16:12:59.770-05:00Which paint do u use??

Great question. I was going for a di...Hello Cathy!<br />Great question. I was going for a distressed look on this planter, so the sanding to get the paint off of the wax was part of the distressing for this project. If you want a piece not to be distressed, there are a few ways to go about it. You could either a) sand VERY carefully and only hit the raised parts where the wax is, or b) use a scraper or something much more detailed (a toothpick, etc...) to carefully wear away the paint on top of the wax. The best way I've found, though, is to sand lightly and scrape up the paint around it as little as possible, then put a sealer on top, which will make the scratch marks in the paint magically disappear. Just use a high grit sandpaper--220 or so. Hope that helps!Becky@DoodleBugOnlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763918737667531018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040211037720460890.post-4526861348955317082012-10-18T12:24:06.077-05:002012-10-18T12:24:06.077-05:00Hi,

Being able to write a tutorial is a great skill and you've got it down to a fine art!<br />I have a question re the stencil. Some of the design on your stencil is very thin, how do you sand the paint off the wax without taking off the surrounding paint so the ironing can take place?<br />Thanks for your time,<br />CathyCathynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040211037720460890.post-30268316485707392752012-05-25T23:54:34.207-05:002012-05-25T23:54:34.207-05:00I think this is awesome!
