Painting a Nutcracker

[@jamessmalls3458]

I bought a set of six three inch nutcrackers and had no idea where to start with paint ideas. Thank you for this video. I feel confident enough to paint mine now.

Good looking nutcracker Just bought a couple to do myself was wandering if you could post materials used? Did you sand, did you use a pre sealant or something to help the paint stick? Thanks for sharing

Beautiful!! Where did you order the blank Nutcracker from?

[@artsandcraftycentral]

Thank you! 😄 I got this nutcracker from Michael’s craft store, but I know they are only in stock around Christmas. I tried to find another one to paint this year, but they were sold out at two locations. I found one at Joann’s that was just plain wood, although I don’t think it was intended to be painted. My most recent video is actually about it.
