What you will need:
• Old household items or inexpensive
new ones.
• Masking tape and/or string depending
on your design.
• Art Deco neon paint
(or spray paint for a large area)
• Small artist’s paintbrush
• Walnut oil wood finish
• Clear Shellac (food safe) wood treatment
• Small decorator’s paint brush
Step-by-step process:
1. Lightly sand any utensils you wish to stain
darker. You often find with inexpensive
utensils that they are very light in colour.
2. We stained all of the wooden spoons and
spatulas three different shades – just add
more layers for a darker finish. Stain to your
preference using the walnut oil wood finish
and the small decorator’s brush. Leave to dry
according to the instructions on the tin
3. Decide on your design and use masking tape
to cover the areas you do not want
