How to paint a watermelon hat and flip-flops
Painting some new summer accessories like a wide-brimmed hat and flip-flops with Testors craft paint can be a fun project as each summer can have a new theme and color scheme – this year it is watermelon for me! If you like pink, green, black and white why not try painting some watermelons on your summer accessories.
I happen to find a great pink wide-brimmed hat for just $2. This will keep the sun off me in style!
The first step in transforming this plain hat into a watermelon is with a stripe of green around the outermost edge with Testors craft paint . This is so easy as you simply used the stitching rings as your guide. Where the ring ends simply ease the stripe together.
Repeat this step with white paint for the next two rings.
Then paint little black seeds that are teardrop shaped randomly around the remaining pink area of the hat.
I like to get a new pair of flip-flops each year and dress them up. For this pair I thought I’d paint them differently but with the same colors as my hat. One flip-flop I made lots of little vertical stripes in all the colors of Testors craft paint around the side edge. The other I did 2 horizontal stripes all the way around the side edge. I think they came out petty fun!
Both hats and flip-flops are a great surfaces for all ages of painters to put their personal touch on.
