Drift with the Sea

Using a nice driftwood hanging heart string and the new Mintay “Seaside Escape” die cut collection I have created this mixed media hanger... 

So follow along in this post and I will show you how to take this collection of bits and pieces and turn it into the above beautiful creation! 

For this project I have used the 

Tarzan Grip Adhesive 

Gotta love die cut pieces no fussy cutting !

I have placed my Mintay Seaside Escape die cut pieces on my hanger at different intervals mounting some on 3 D foam 

I have then used the Tarzan Grip Adhesive to glue shells randomly on the hanger and then I have left it to dry thoroughly overnight as our weather here is wet and muggy 

Next step was to add some sand effects to the hanger. 

I have mixed sand with the Tarzan Grip Glue 

And then spread it onto the shells and drift wood pieces 

I have then added highlights with some waxes and then dry brushed white Gesso over the top.

And that is the hanger finished!
