Rustic box
« on: January 22, 2014, 03:41:34 pm »
Hi all, lately I have not had work.
But anyway I like to experiment with new techniques.
I like this work, it has a rustic finished.
The box is pine plywood and MDF top.
The cover is reproduced with a normal copy (not printing) and transferred to MDF with thinner.
The picture on the box made ​​with a similar method, but took care Termolina (material used for screen printing)
Hope you like the idea beforehand and welcome your comments.

Looks good but I don't quite follow the "transfer with thinner" part. Can you elaborate, or provide a link to how it is done?

Very nice Frank.  I like the concept and your execution of it.  There is also tshirt transfer paper that I suspect one could iron onto the wood similar to a tshirt.  Thanks for the link to the transfer information.
