Here’s a fun DIY For you… hand painted wooden bangles!

This DIY couldn’t get easier, all you need are some simple wooden bangles and an assortment of acrylic paints in the colors of your choice. Grab your brushes and get creative.

I painted these three wooden bangles using some brightly colored acrylic paints, some special paint mediums and some glitter.

To make this turquoise colored glitter bangle I sprinkled some gold glitter onto the paint while it was still wet. Once the paint was dry I went over the bangle with some acrylic varnish.

To create this bangle I painted a base coat and waited for it to dry. Once dry I added a top coat of gold paint. Once both of these layers were dry I used some sandpaper to sand back the top coat, revealing the paint underneath for an aged look.

To make this last bangle I used three different colors of paint and some acrylic crackle medium. To create the crackle effect I initially painted the bangle with a layer of yellow paint. Once the yellow base coat was dry I added a layer of crackle medium and left it to dry. Finally, I added a coat of red paint, which, when painted on top of the crackle medium will reveal the undercoat as it dries.
