***Update***The winner of the Rub ‘n Buff is Vicky from Decor & Harmony @4290
Thanks everyone for entering the contest!
My new best friend and it can be yours too!
Amaco Rub ‘n Buff, small package with a large impact.
One tube covers 20 sq. ft.
I started with this thrift store frame.
In it’s former life, I think it was a mirror.
It’s made of plastic, off white with dark gold highlights.
I dressed it up with flat black spray paint and used Rub ‘n Buff for highlights.
Silver Leaf Rub ‘n Buff.
I followed the directions on the package, you can rub it on with your finger or with a cloth. I feel more crafty when I get my hands dirty, or my fingers silver in this case. I used fingernail polish remover to remove from my fingers and then washed my hands with soap and water.
I think it turned out great and it looks much better all dressed up.
I’m using the frame to showoff a smaller picture.
I am very happy with Rub ‘n Buff. I am thinking about all the things that I can use it on!
If you’d like to try some, I’m giving away one tube of
Amaco Gold Leaf Rub ‘n Buff.
(Product for the giveaway and my sample was provided by Amaco.)
