Source: This is an original functioning item that I thought would be good for my sister as she is always playing jokes on me and also she just bought a house and she loves green. So you have a functional housewarming item.
Supplies:
- fake fingers
- long board or shorter board dending on what you're making it
- on how many coats or towels it holds
- Paint of your choice
- Rag to wipe paint around
- fingernail polish
- screws
- screwdriver
- drill for holds for hanging
- jutnail polish , your choice
- sand paper if needed
Steps:
- Drill the 2 holes fot the jute to hang them with.
- Color the finger nails on the dummy nails, allow them to dry.
- Smooth the board if it is rough. Make sure the board is smooth and dirt free.
- Put the sticker wherever you want on the board. I put mine at the bottom so it can be seen when there is nothing hanging on the board. I outlined mine with a black marker.
- Pour a bit of paint on the board and smear until it is as thin as you can make it. As far as you can do this as much as you can
- with every thing smooth. This will look aged when you finish. If you have
- veins on the bottom, leave them because it gives a little bit of character.
- Allow the paint to dry. Line your fingers up. Take the bottoms of the fingers and using the screws, screw them into the board around the bottom of nail. I used 3 screws on each finger.
- Allow to dry and you have a darling towel or coat hanger. Cost at 1.00 each
