A gift for a child. A hug to begin the love. Enjoy the feelings of the heart as you paint this treasure in the shape of a bear.
This set includes the blank ornament, color photos and instructions - patterns are etched on the surface for ease and to add dimension to the painting.
Another wonderful outlet for our creative journey, each ornament is done out of mdf and laser cut with intricate detail. The patterns are etched on the surface for ease of painting. If you prefer to not use the etching, it can be painted over with Gesso or Texture paste and then the pattern can be applied - as you prefer.
This design originally appeared in our our packet JP3197. If you have this packet already then you have the instruction for painting this design and can just purchase the blanks.
