A hanging decoration with shrink plastic sheets which is cut out and painted with Plus Color Craft Paint.
Other stencils or foam stamps can also be used. Take care that the shrink plastic sheets are not left too long in the oven to prevent them from turning yellow.
Use a squeeze punch for cutting out circles measuring 5cm in diameter.
Draw the boot and the horse using the stencil and then cut out.
Make holes using an eyelet setter.
Using Plus Color, antique red, dab the letters through the stencil and decorate the cut out designs.
Shrink the designs in an oven at 160 degrees. Keep an eye on them and only take them out of the oven when they have "straightened" again.
As shown in the photo they shrink to approx. 1/3 in size.
Form a ring from bonsai wire with a diameter of approx. 15cm and tie on the thin brass wire. Then tie on the letters and designs. Glue in place.
Make tassels from striped cotton string and tie on bells on each side just above the tassels.
Hang the decoration using doubled over striped cotton string.
