Craftinger Gold Leafing Art Kit - Instruction Guide
Materials Included:
8" Round MDF Board
8" Square MDF Board
10 Gold Leaf Sheets
15ml Gilding Glue
2 Brushes
3 Acrylic Colors (Black, White, Pink)
Additional Materials Needed (Not Included):
Soft cloth or paper towels
A small container of water
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare Your Workspace:
Lay down some newspaper or a plastic sheet to protect your workspace from glue and paint spills.
Ensure you have all the materials from the kit ready and within reach.
2. Base Painting:
Decide on a base color for your MDF boards using the provided acrylic colors (black, white, pink).
Use one of the brushes to paint the surface of the MDF board with your chosen color. Apply a thin, even coat.
Allow the paint to dry completely before proceeding to the next step. This may take approximately 20-30 minutes.
3. Applying Gilding Glue:
Once the base paint is dry, use the second brush to apply a thin layer of gilding glue to the areas where you want to apply the gold leaf.
The glue will go on white but will become clear and tacky as it dries. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
4. Applying Gold Leaf Sheets:
Carefully pick up a gold leaf sheet and gently place it over the tacky glue area. Use your brush to press it down gently.
Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles using the brush or a soft cloth.
Repeat the process until all desired areas are covered with gold leaf. You can overlap sheets for a more textured look.
5. Removing Excess Gold Leaf:
Once the gold leaf is applied and the glue has set, use a soft brush or cloth to gently brush away any excess gold leaf that is not adhered to the glue.
6. Touch-Up and Detailing:
If needed, touch up any areas where the gold leaf might have torn or missed using small pieces of leaf and a bit more glue.
You can also add details using the remaining acrylic paints. Use fine brushes for precision.
7. Sealing Your Artwork: (Optional)
For added protection and longevity of your artwork, you can apply a clear acrylic sealer or varnish over the entire surface once the glue and paint are completely dry.
Follow the sealer manufacturer's instructions for the best results.
8. Displaying Your Art:
Your gold leafing art is now complete! Allow everything to dry thoroughly before handling.
Display your artwork proudly on a wall, shelf, or gift it to someone special.
Tips and Tricks:
Practice on a small piece of scrap material before starting on the MDF boards to get comfortable with the gold leafing process.
Use the black paint for a dramatic, high-contrast look with the gold leaf, white for a classic and elegant appearance, and pink for a fun, modern twist.
Experiment with different patterns and techniques, such as geometric shapes or freehand designs, to create unique pieces.
Safety Note:
Keep the gilding glue and gold leaf sheets away from children and pets.
Use in a well-ventilated area.
