  • Step 1Begin by giving your plaque a coat of white paint. Allow to dry. This is not essential but provides a good base for painting.
  • Step 2Paint your plaque in a bright colour and allow to dry completely.
  • Step 3Place a corner of a paper doily onto the painted plaque and then using a soft brush, dab another colour of paint onto the doily so that it goes through the doily holes.
  • Step 4Carefully lift off doily to reveal the painted pattern and then repeat the previous step until you are happy with your plaque design.
  • Step 5You may like to add glitter for extra sparkle.
