Show N’ Tell: Painted Bow

written by admin

Fake Bow

I made this bow for a birthday present for my boyfriend. I wrapped his present in regular paper then painted the bow with acrylics afterwards. This is really useful if you want to mail a present to someone because there’s no risk of the bow being smashed. This is one of the most realistic paintings I’ve ever done and I’m not a good enough painter to explain to you how to do it so if you can’t paint, have at it.

    Brilliant idea and so much cheaper than having to rebox in an effort to preserve a bow!
