Back to School

Summer is almost over and a new year of school is just around the corner! What better way to stand apart from "the crowd" than by carrying your own, personalized pencil case and lunch box?




Plastic is a medium I've never painted on before. This was tricky because the surface is slippery and paint doesn't stick to it very well. After a lot of trial and error, I finally found a technique that worked well. A primer was applied first, followed by acrylic paint and a waterproof sealant, which I'm hoping will help things stay in tact with all the travels these cases will do throughout a typical school day.

If you have any school supplies you would like me to help you personalize for your big school year, please send me an email. Don't forget, 20% of my profits will go to help The Townsend Family adopt a child!
