Let's make some cool shades.
For a long time, the only sunglasses cutter out was a tiny cookie cutter.
I used it for while......but always wanted to have a larger cutter.
With all the new plastic 3D printer cutters out there.....there are definitely some additonal choices.
But I wanted to use a common cutter and see if I could create the same look.
Any heart cutter can be used......but the larger the better.
I used the large red cutter in this set.
Cut the pointed top off of the heart and
if desired, increase the "cleavage" of the sunglasses by using a tear drop cutter as shown below.
Outline and flood the glasses in your choice color of 10-second glaze.
Allow the rim frames to dry for a few hours before adding the black lenses (to prevent bleeding).
Notice in the photo above how the light from the window in the room reflected off of the
very wet and shiny black glaze.
That is exactly the type markings you want to add to the sunglasses to make them look real.
You can add white reflection lines immediately onto the black glaze (wet-on-wet).
Or you can allow the sunglasses to dry overnight and then paint on some white reflection lines.
but you can just as easily paint on some Americolor Bright White gel.
After the reflection lines have dried,
paint on some dry super pearl luster dust to the bottom halves of the lens.
You're all set for the summer sunshine. :)
