Recognize it? It's the one in the middle. The two handled urns sold right away. As much as I liked the one on the left, I let it go. I held onto this one, and wanted to give it a little more character, and depth.
The rusty base was the perfect start for what I had in mind. I brushed and dabbed on a caramel color, followed by white with the same brush. I just wiped the brush off a little with a rag, but didn't remove the first color completely. I wanted the colors to blend into each other. My application was sporadic.
I followed with a generous rub of dirt, and grass. Yes, that mossy look was achieved by making a big clump of grass, and rubbing it on the surface. The finish compliments my dried hydrangeas.
Kinda stone-like now.
I'm happy with it.
