Guest guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 Hi I was wondering if any one could give me any advice on decorating. I have no artistic ability what so ever so it has to be simple. Ive heard of just putting stickers on but I kind of wanted to do more but I am still undecided. Any suggestions are greatly welcome. I have a week and a half till Mya gets her band so Im in no rush just anxious about getting it. Christi mom to Mya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2002 Report Share Posted February 25, 2002 Wow Christi, you sure have gotten a lot of replies already! I used acrylic paints as a background for the stickers or rub-on transfers. The paint dries really quickly, and I was able to peel it off when I wanted to change the decorations (using a little elbow grease). My first attempt at sealing the bands, I used the spray on varnish and my rub-on transfers shriveled up like shrinky dinks. I had really good luck using the acrylic varnish. I also used Mod Podge and it worked really well, except that I found that it left a sticky residue. I don't know if its because I used it during extrememly hot and humid weather or what. To paint the twins' names on the bands, I used glitter glue pens, which worked great! Hope that helps a little!
