Other Supplies: Assorted Acrylic paints, Mount board, Barbecue skewers and wood block, Hair putty

1. Die-cut all the elements from mount board.
2. Paint all the die-cuts using raw sienna (deep red/brown) acrylic paint.
3. Use men’s hair putty as a resist and apply to the die-cuts where you want rust patches to appear.
4. Paint the separate die-cuts using a 1950’s colour palette.
5. Once the paint is dry wipe away the areas where the hair clay has been applied with some kitchen paper to expose the rust colour.
6. Drill two holes into the wood block and insert the barbecue skewers before painting/distressing as before.
7. Use a glue gun to mount the die-cuts onto the painted skewers.
8. Water down some orange paint and apply to some of the die cuts with a brush so that it drips down the surface to mimic the effect of rust discolouration.
