 I decided I was done amongst antique gilded accents together with wanted to a greater extent than silver/champagne tones throughout our living room together with entryway.

So I got unopen to Krylon Champagne Mist together with went crazy on 3 mirrors together with twelve moving painting frames. And you lot sentiment I was kidding when I said I went crazy. While I was taking the gallery wall frames downwards to pigment them, I decided to exercise something a fiddling unlike together with alter out my vintage botanical prints to antler prints.

My hubby could non live to a greater extent than pleased. Trading flowers for antlers is a large addition inward the man-book-of-decor.
Surely that exists.

So, I institute a few antler printables online, together with therefore printed together with framed them.
Here is the concluding lawsuit of my novel antler gallery wall!

I mean value it turned out pretty cool. And it's ever overnice to alter things upwards a bit.
I also spray painted a few mirrors.
I did the i inward the vestibule that hangs on the stone wall.

(You tin encounter to a greater extent than well-nigh that transformation here.) I also sprayed the vase a high gloss white (it used to live gold) together with moved a fiddling bluish & silverish striped carpet onto the landing. I withal involve to update all of the calorie-free fixtures, but I've got a innovation for that...later. 

(see to a greater extent than well-nigh the living room here)

I mean value the lighter metallic element mirror enhances the stone wall much meliorate than it did when it was nighttime gold.

Every matter only feels meliorate now. 

As far every bit the antler wall goes, I got the sentiment after hanging the gallery wall of bird silhouettes I did inward the striped invitee bathroom.

If you lot desire to impress off your ain deer together with antler silhouettes, only google 'free deer silhouette' together with 'free antler silhouette' together with and therefore only print, print, print, purpose upwards ink cartridge, purpose upwards ink cartridge, purpose upwards ink cartridge.

Oh, except for the fact that I had to accept all of these bad boys downwards multiple times to spray pigment the frames unlike colors.

I started off amongst white, together with in i lawsuit they were all up, I hated it. Then chrome..which made it resemble a toolbox. Then lastly settled on 'champagne'. Now I'm lovin' it.

Sigh. I loathe non getting something correct the get-go time, but I'm neurotic plenty to popular off on at it 'til it's only right.

It's a subtle change, those antlers, but I mean value I similar it meliorate than the peacock feathers. They were likewise fragile for that large wall.

Oh, you lot fragile peacock, you!

DIY Gold Leaf Art

Even though my silverish leaf desk withal haunts me inwards my dreams almost a calendar month later, I decided to receive gilt leafing 1 to a greater extent than time. I'm non easily deterred, as well as was determined to conquer this elusive petty leafage creature. This time, I take in it would last best to conduct something smaller than a desk, as well as opted for art.
Good news. Turns out gilt leafing isn't all that hard. 
As long every bit y'all gilt leafage something the size of a pepperoni.

I actually dearest the gilt foil prints I've been seeing everywhere, exactly they are commonly pretty pricey. So, I decided to brand my ain instead. I created iii unlike prints, 2 for the living room gallery wall (seen here!) as well as 1 for the bedroom.

I framed it inwards a Target frame that I talked myself out of buying for roughly 8 months. But as well as therefore it went on clearance for $5 as well as my heed said no, exactly my trunk walked it direct to the checkout lane.

I intend it hypnotized me.

Anyways, turns out they're a perfect pair...

You can't deal destiny.

So, here's what you'll ask to brand unopen to gilt leafage fine art of your own.

Supplies:

Gold leafage foil (I used this one.)

Stencil (This one comes amongst letters, numbers, as well as symbols.)

White cardstock (I dearest these heavyweight mixed newspaper notebooks from Target. They are entirely $5 as well as I've been using the same 1 for all my artwork for nearly 3 years.)

Scrapbooking gum (This one worked best for me. I tried basic Elmer's glue, exactly the foil kept flaking off.)

Large brush (I used a $1 makeup brush from Target.)

Let's larn started!

Step #1:

Place your stencil on the cardstock as well as apply the gum evenly within the stencil. The scrapbooking gum had a sponge tip as well as a sudden tip, which worked out perfectly. You tin dismiss also role a pocket-size paintbrush to spread the gum evenly if needed.

Step #2:

Carefully take away the stencil as well as house a canvas of gilt leafage on transcend of the glue. 

It's super flimsy, therefore become slow amongst the manhand.

Step #3:
