Doodle Art Wood Bracelets

 I recently came into some ravishing blank wood bracelets by DIY Bangles and could not resist glamming them up with my Crafty Chica Markers! I've always loved to take markers to wood because it is vibrant color with no mess! The best aspect of this project is that you just draw and fill, low stress. I'm talking, craft therapy! Psssttt...this is one of the projects we will be doing on the cruise later this month!

 You'll need some blank wood bracelets (found at the craft store), a pencil and eraser, permanent markers, Collage Pauge® Instant Decoupage  to seal it all in!

  This is up to you, but if you want to plan out your design, you can sketch it with a pencil. Honestly, I just draw with the marker, but I think next time I'll sketch.

 

Go over your lines with the black marker. Think like a coloring book! Big and bold designs, thirsty to be colored with bright inks!

  Color and shade as you go!

  After you color in the areas of the designs, fill in the background too!

  Don't forget the inside of the bracelet! Make the most of every millimeter of empty space! The very last step is to seal. You can use Collage Pauge® Instant Decoupage or Aleene's® Spray Acrylic Sealer™
