You actually have to tape it all out. That's why custom paint jobs are so much $$.

 

Go to second hand stores, Goodwill etc. That's where I found mine...

 

Red light district.

 

Victoria's Garage.

 

Just take some off your dress.

 

Mug a bride? I apologize!

 

Money well spent....

 

I bought some lace curtains for mine.

 

Do a search. Google is your friend. There is WAY more out there than what you can find at box stores like JoAnns.

 

Estate sales. I bought sliding glass door lace curtains, shears, for $5.00.
They're 6' x 8'. Plenty enough to play with, then one for points.
I've played with it and its interesting. Not being a painter its a steep learning curve.
Just more fun garage time when you could be doing something useful.

 

from a girl named Chantilly.........i think.

 

Used the ol ladies droors on mine. Fortunately I only had a small area to do.

Just use your wife's wedding dress and beg forgiveness later

 

I saw a friend do a lace paint job on a motorcycle. It looked surprisingly easy.

 

Peel and stick.

 

Oh good lord...Fred wins.

 

Your Moms dinning room table!

 

Scratch and sniff

 

Why would you want to?

 

We have lace curtains in the dining room and living room. If I remember we bought them at JC Penney pretty cheap.

 

I was going to comment but I cant after Fred's response

 

Same reason anyone would want a Plymouth...just because.

 

I used the 8 foot Train off of my ex wifes wedding dress back in 1970, If I remember right, that might be one of the reasons that she is my EX wife!!

 

Boy times have changed. Didn't have that in the 60's and 70s .

 

I' m gonna use it on the top of my wooden surfboard so it will be a magic carpet. I don't have a job no more so I need to amuse myself. The hamb helps qith the amusement department.

 

Got our lace at Wal Mart
