Basecoat top of box with equal amounts of Medium White and DecoArt Multi-Purpose Sealer using the large flat brush. When dry, sand lightly and wipe off dust. Dampen the sur- face with DecoArt Extender Medium and wipe off excess with soft cloth or paper towel. While still damp, apply shading color of Pine Green plus a little Prussian Blue Hue in a slip- slap motion in the lower right area where the main flowers will be placed. Use a soft paper towel in circular motions to soften the color away from the main flower area. Now add more Pine Green +Blue Mix (1:tch) along the edges of the box and again use a circular motion to soften toward the center of the lid. Let dry and then transfer pattern with graphite.
