A fun addition to your summer décor, this Americana Barn Star is also something that can fit into your house, or hang outside your house, all year long.
Things you’ll need:
Rustic Barn Star
Foam brush
Red, white and blue acrylic paint
Things to do:
1. Using the foam brush and edging it right up to the seams of the star, paint the left side of each point with two or three coats of white paint, allowing each coat to dry before adding the next.
2. Locate which point will be the top (by finding the hanger on the back) and paint the right hand side of the next point down from the top blue in the same manner that you painted the white.
3. Paint the remaining sections red in the same manner. If you plan to hang your star outside, coat the entire thing with polyurethane to protect it.
is that wood or tin?
