Varnishing Acrylic Painted Christmas Ornaments

How to Varnish Acrylic Hand Painted Christmas Ornaments

Hi 👋🏼 I created some hand painted ornaments to help decorate my sister's booth (https://www.shopalogoods.com/) at the Tucson Museum of Arts Festival next weekend and I thought it would be helpful to show you some ways to seal them. My favorite way to varnish is by using the Rust-oleum Crystal Clear Enamel spray, but I am running out! I searched my studio room and found a few other varnishes to try.

In this video, I demonstrate 5 different products to varnish acrylic pour Christmas ornaments after the acrylic paint has been applied.

👉 NOTES: Here are a few notes after the ornaments dried.
🌵Rust-oleum Crystal Clear Enamel: Make sure to spray thin coats and check the ornament after each coat to ensure coverage.
🌵Liquitex Professional High Gloss Varnish: Multiple coats will be best. The first layer is cracked, but additional layers should provide a clean, glossy finish with minimal brush strokes.
🌵Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish: This product is designed to hold brush strokes, even with additional layers. It is glossy and will give a textured look when dry.
🌵Mod Podge: This product will show brush strokes, and it gives a high gloss finish.
🌵TriArt Liquid Glass: This product gave a weathered texture that I thought added a fun characteristic to the ornaments. It does take longer to dry, and thinner layers work best.

👉 Comment below and say Hi let me know what you think of this technique.

🎨A TIP FROM ME TO YOU ❤: It can be easy to get frustrated when creating art. Trust the process, trust YOURSELF and enjoy your creative journey!🎨
