DT SASPC - Desktop Organizer

Welcome!

I'm again and my second project inspiration for our monthly

 Steampunk Challenge

Anything Goes - Steampunk/Industrial

 

  

On my desk mostly the pure chaos prevails 

and I am constantly on the search for something.

Therefore I made a new organizer from old recycle materials

to have my brushes and pencils on one place.

 

I used some paper rolls from toilet and kitchenpaper.

I have cut the rolls in different sizes

and glued it all on a thick cardstock piece. 

I started my alteration by using some DecoArt Weathered Wood, 

then a thick layer of chalky finish paint 'Timeless'.

Let it dry.

Now a layer of fine Texture Sand paste

only in some places.

  

  and now a mixture from some rust acrylic paints

DecoArt Fluid Acrylics Transparent Yellow, Iron Oxide, Quinacridone Gold and Carbon Black

 Diluted in water they will run very well.

 Finally some gears (dies with texture paper) rub ons and embellishments,
I highlighted all of the raised areas with a metalic silver wax creme 

and the new organizer was ready.

 My  teamies at SASPC have come up with many 
inspiring and different versions 

on the theme this time.

Happy crafting!
