SPRAY PAINTED PLAID PEEK-A-BOO Tumbler Tutorial! Day 10 of 10 Days of Fall!

https://youtu.be/_0PeUe80yrw Hey guys, welcome to the 10th and final day of my ten fall days. This has been so much fun, and of course, I saved the best for last you guys this cup. I am so excited about this. I had this vision in my head, and it came out better than I expected. This is my plaid peekaboo mug, and I couldn't be happier with it. I am in love like this. This is my absolute favorite of all the fall cups this year. I have a giveaway on the Glitters I used and the epoxy, so check that out below for details. Again, I am so proud of this cup. I'm so excited about my 12 Days of Christmas because you know that that is coming too soon. I have big plans for that. I can't wait for all the giveaways I'm doing. Thank you guys so much for watching my series. If you haven't already, check out all the other days, and let's get into the tutorial. We're starting with this hydro flow Parker mug; I've used this brand a lot. I like them. This was $14.99 at TJ Maxx, I just took off the lid, and the packaging, then prepped with mattify in an abrasive pad, then spray painted metallic gold just as a base for our glitter. I ended up losing the footage from glittering the cup. Still, this video is already really long, and it's just using the epoxy method to glitter the cup. The top glitter, the brown one is Cove, the middle one is dusk, and the bottom one is a golden hour. I just thought it would be beautiful to have the different tones in there, so I did that and epoxied it to make it nice and smooth then I'm going in with ivory silk, Stone gray, and Nutmeg. Just those are my three colors for our plaid. The first thing I did was tape off the handle; I wanted the handle to stay gold, so I just Taped that off so that we could do our plaid. We're making the base. The ivory Silk does not have an entirely smooth cup, but that's okay. We'll use the distressing in those areas, so don't worry about it. So once that was dry, we're going to start with our plaid. I am using two different sizes of the painter's tape to give us it's not just like an even squared plaid. It kind of gives us those different shapes. This is also easier to do than on a handled mug, but I just thought it would be cute on a mug, so I made it a lot harder on myself and had to work around the handles. This technique I learned from Danielle at damn fancy Creations. I will link her Channel and her plaid video below; I had never seen a spray-painted plaid before I watched her. We're going to use the more petite tape as just a guide for spacing the more significant tape so you lay the next one down. Then you peel up the smaller one and just continue to do that around the whole cup, and it's not entirely even, but I feel like the result you don't notice it, so I'm going to take that stone gray, and we're just doing a very very light coat of the spray paint just like a dusting. Now this plaid process can seem confusing, but it's pretty simple. You just have to make sure you get the steps right, so peel that off, and you can see it's grayer, but it's not like a full coverage Gray. We're going to do the vertical stripes, so I'm using the larger one as the spacer, and I'm just starting at the bottom. So then I'm taking that gray and just going on with a little bit more than we did the last time, also spraying the bottom a little bit. Then I'm also taking the nutmeg and doing a little light dusting of the nutmeg. Our next step is to leave that tape on there, and you're going to replace the video where it was on the first time we spray-painted so the lighter cream sections with the giant tape. So we're replacing tape on there. I'm taking gray and going on with a heavier layer. And the brown and going with a heavier coating. So yes, this looks like a hot mess of garbage, but just trust the process. Once we peel it off, so just peel off all the tape. Then you start to see the Plaid look come together now. You could leave it at that. I just wanted to add the minor striping in between, but because this is a peekaboo, I couldn't do like Pinstripes or nail tape. So I marked all the centers of the squares so that I knew where half the halfway mark was, and we're just doing little tiny lines to paint a darker brown. So you see, it's just a fine line there, so I just go ahead and do the whole cup. Then I have to work around the handles again. Then I'm taking the London gray, which looks more like a dark brown to me but spraying and making sure to coat those little lines heavily so that we get full coverage like the line in there just peeling that. You can tell I did not stick those down as well as I should have. Just make sure if you're doing these little lines that you attach the tape down with those beautiful Stripes as well, and I removed the video from the handle as well since we're all done with spray paint. Then it was time for distressing, so I used some acetone and a paper towel and rubbed off the paint where I wanted the glitter to show. I always do the whole top rim and the whole bottom with a Q-tip and just clean it up and make sure that there's no cloudiness from the spray paint fenders. So anywhere the spray paint was not looking great is where I did the distressing after I finished distressing, so I did another layer of the epoxy. For the decal, I got this little decal from Etsy. It just says Farm Fresh pumpkins hand-picked, so cute, and I cut around it so that I could see where we want it on the cup so we can do a spray-painted bleach spot, so I checked where I wanted it. I'm taking the flat white Rust-Oleum paint and spray painting right in that area. We don't want to make it too big of a site then going on with that nutmeg just like a little just to give it a little hit of it, so it's not pure white then just taking acetone and cleaning up around the edges and where I don't want the paint just making sure that bleach spot isn't too big. It's just where we need tape to put the decal onto the cup. Sorry about this angle; I don't know what I was doing, but t did one more layer of epoxy to finish the cup. I love the peekaboo. I love the distressing. I love the plaid. It's all the things I wanted. Thank you for watching the ten days of fall series.
