Chalk/Pastel Transfer

6/22/2013

Some months ago, I shared the process for creating an acrylic transfer. What is really cool about that method is that you can literally copy an image, what is not so great is that you have to apply a thick layer of acrylic paint to the surface you are transferring the image to. To solve this, I bring you the chalk/pastel transfer method. My sister gave me a small chest of drawers that was asking for some paint in a really cool design. I went online and came across a cool decal of knit stitches and Wall Lettering Made Easy by My Wonderful Walls. This method essentially follows that laid out by My Wonderful Walls.
Kit's Crafts - Chalk/Pastel Transfer
Materials:
Black and White image
Object to transfer image to
Ball Point Pen
Chalk or Pastel (light color is better to prevent staining)
Paint
Painter's tape
Paint brushes

Step 1: Cut image down to size if needed, then cover the back with chalk/pastel. Tap away excess powder.
Step 2: Attach image to the object with painter's tape, then using the pen, draw around the outline, pressing hard so the image transfers clearly.
Step 3: Remove paper, paint inside the chalk outline. After the first coat wipe away the chalk with a wet rag.
Optional: Apply a second coat once first is dry. When the second coat is dry, use 150 fine grit sandpaper to distress image.
