Very often in kitchens there are glass aprons, the surface of which is glued with a film. That's just the appearance of the film (especially monotonous color) is not always combined with the interior.
In this review, the author suggests making a beautiful kitchen apron with his own hands - also a glass apron, but with an imitation of the surface of a tree.
This design will look more original and interesting. Moreover, to make this decor for everyone.
The main stages of work
If you already have a film on a glass apron, you will need to remove it. This may require a building hair dryer.
After a self-adhesive film, traces of glue usually remain on the surface of the glass, which will also need to be removed with acetone and a spatula.
When using any solvents, be sure to wear rubber gloves on your hands and work in a well-ventilated area.
For further work you will need a set of rubber spatulas. With the help of a clerical knife, the author makes them serrated.
At the next stage, using a brush, apply a thin layer of silver-pearl enamel (or acrylic paint) to the glass surface.
Then, using the notched rubber spatulas, we "draw" the texture of the tree. It should be noted that the decor technique proposed by the author is universal - you can make absolutely any pattern on glass.
At the last stage, it remains only to apply the finish layer. For this, the author uses a water-based varnish, universal color, a small amount of washable water-based paint.
