Painted bangle bracelet


You'll need at least one blank wood bangle bracelet, some acrylic paint and a paint brush. 


Step 1: Use a light color to prime a 'background' area on your bangle. I used two coats. Acrylic paint dries extremely fast (usually within about 10 minutes). 


Step 2: Paint XOs (or any cute design) in varied paint colors all the way around your bracelet. I did half, let it dry and then did the other half to prevent smudges. I used red and poppy orange paint colors. 


Step 3: Let dry and seal with an acrylic paint sealer if desired. I would recommend sealing in case you ever wear it in the rain etc... It will help to protect your hand painted details.
