Glimmer Mist - what are your favorite vintage-y colors?
I'm starting to get the hang of using GM, but I only have one bottle. Love to add more, especially in the vintage colors. Open to other most used colors as well. TIA!
My favourite one right now is a homemade colour with the DecoArt metallic paint colour called Rich Espresso. Its kind of chocolatey brown color, but has a beautiful sheen. I got the paint at Michaels for 99cents and the way I'm going through it (even tho those little bottles last forever), I think I should by a couple more bottles and bigger spray bottles.
I put a few drops of the paint in a mini mister, then fill with water and that's it. The paint has a lot of pigment and shimmer, so you only need 3 or 4 drops. Once its dry, the shimmer doesn't rub off either. The DecoArt paint is really nice - so nice I went out and bought it in antique gold and polished silver.
I never heard of Deco Art paint and I go to MIchael's all the time. I can't wait to try these, as I love creating things myself. (Thanks for sharing cat woman. Love the ID.) I think most of the GM can be used for a vintage look but recently I just used 2 pinks and a purple and dyed my own rayon ribbon and it turned out gorgeous ... dried more subtle that it looked at first. Awesome vintage ribbon!
