Altered Sardine Cans

My 2 cans all set for the next layer.

Christmas: The can has several layers of gesso, followed by red acrylic and then gold acrylic paint.  The paper inside the can is from my secret swapper, I do love all things spotty..

NON Christmas:  The can was covered in pages from a latin text book, then a layer of scrunched up tissue paper was added over this.  The dolls head is attached to a long screw, this is not secure as I think it will be easier to play with loose.


Girls feel free to get weird and wacky with these.

All packaged and ready for posting tomorrow.

  1. I love the dolls head. Mine is almost ready to go just finishing it now. It's hard to stop though so I'll look forward to working on yours instead.
