How to Create an Angelic Shrine using Perfect Paints: Day 10 of 12 Days of Christmas
Hello everyone – Cheryl here! As the holiday season approaches, I find myself immersed in the magic and joy that Christmas brings. For me, the essence of this time of year is intertwined with cherished gatherings of family and friends, the warm glow of decorations illuminating our home, the delightful aromas wafting from the kitchen, and the joy of crafting heartfelt gifts. One of my most treasured passions is creating unique shrines from various materials, including metal, paper, and wood. These little masterpieces are more than just decorations; they hold stories and memories that enrich our celebrations. Today, I'm excited to share my process as I decorate a special small shrine that will adorn our Christmas tree. Join me as we infuse our holiday spirit using Perfect Paints into this creative endeavor!
