A Chocolate and Pistachio Birdhouse
Colleen's last birdhouse is enough to make you want a snack. She used the Chocolate and Pistachio Gelatos to create this little gem. Book pages were adhered to the birdhouse with Gel Medium. Colleen used her trusty paint making technique to make watercolor paint with her Gelatos by swirling them on to a palette and adding water. She chose a Pistachio house with a Chocolate roof and doesn't it look yummy! Circles and Stripes were painted on with the Gesso in the Textural Accents Sampler. While wet, Colleen sprinked with glitter. The Gesso acts as both a glue and an opaque paint. She topped it off with some silk leaves and what else, a tiny feathered friend.
