Gilded Goat Planter

We know everyone has a goat headed planter just laying around the house. Well why not spruce it up a bit. We gilded ours with imatation gold and silver leaf from our All that Glitters is Leaf Kit. So this is how we did it!

  Step1: After dusting off and wiping our planter clean. We bascoted it with the Chocolate Smooth Basecoat from the kit. After the Basecoat dried we brushed the Sticky Size all over everything and let that dry.
Step 2:  Wearing our fancy gloves we grabed a sheet of gold leaf and applied it to the planter.  
  Using a Chip Brush we softly pushed the gold leaf in the grooves.
After we brushed the leaf we burnish the edges by going over the leaf with a soft cloth. Continue appling the gold leaving open areas for the silver to stick.  
  Step 3: After applying the gold, fill in the Chocolate areas with the silver leaf.
Step 4:  When your goat head planter is fully covered and fully burnished brush Toner over the whole planter and wipe back with a rag. Leaving the toner in the cravases.  

  Now all your friends will wish their goat head planters were as regal as yours!*

*For use on all animal headed planters.
