String Art Tablets
Just a quick post today, I've been getting more & more requests for custom string art tablets - which is great! Since they are custom orders, people have been requesting many new design & color combos, one in particular really stood out for me. They asked for light grey, weathered wood, and this was a first for me. I tried the steel wool and vinegar trick from this post, and it worked like a dream. Then I did a grey color wash over the whole piece of wood. And here it is:
They chose all the colors, and requested copper nails. I think the navy blue string looks really nice on the grey, I'll definitely be doing this combo again. It's leaving today for it's new home, and I hope they like it!
I also finished up this bright bird tablet for my mom, in her requested colors teal & purple:
It's been fun, I'm glad people like them as much as I like making them! Have a great day everyone.
