Hey guys, it's Renee and welcome to another DIY segment. Some materials that we're going to be using are some acrylic paints and black, red and white. A chapter we'll find point, a thin brush and a regular brush, a cuted and a piece of paper. At the beginning I knew I wanted something with a piano on it, but I didn't really know. I didn't have a really defined idea so I went to my friend Gagelb and I saw this real cute image that I wanted to try. So the first thing that I did is took the case away from my phone, but then we're going to go and paint the phone. You can use a primer, I'm not going to do it, I'm just going to go directly, but if you want to, you can always go ahead and play that first. And I'm going to give this a couple of coats until it's really, you know, pigmented that white. So since I was using myself on this image I saw online, I wanted to have like kind of the exact same image. So I took a ruler and pretty much just drew a line like one tree of the whole thing with my sharpie, the binding part. So I just could have a base on to where I should put the piano and the black part. And then I took my ruler again and placed it on the top of my case. And then I kind of marked every centimeter from that ruler and just kind of pointing, you know, marking that. I did that three times. Once I had all my little marks in there, I just went with my ruler again and just kind of gathered all the marks that I had marked before just to make as straight lines as I could make. So this part comes kind of to where I'm going to slow it down for you. You're going to or we're going to put each centimeter on top of those lines. And then we're going to be marking four millimeters like on the left and four millimeters on the right, parting from that line in the middle. So you're going to be doing that in all of the places where the black things go on the pianos. I am now I'm going to show up the technical name of those things, the black, you know, things that you're playing piano. If you know, of course, let me know. So then what I did is just, you know, gathered those marks. And then I ended up bringing the lines, the random lines on the middle part, just bringing them to the top. So this whole thing would be like the base for my piano. I mean, we're just going to go and start the fan painting those black pieces. And you're going to notice a random eye heart music here. I was trying something else and I didn't like it. I ended up not going for it. So that's why I didn't record that part. And then my case has this kind of a circle or just this, you know, window and there. So I'm just going to really carefully paint it with my black paint and using my thin brush. And then we're going to go with the brick and brush and just paint the rest of the black part. Yeah, just be real careful of not crossing the line. But if it's okay, if you do, because we're going to be fixing all those mistakes later. Now, I did it along from the past. Somebody told me that every time I wanted to paint some, you know, edges around something, you can go and use a brush, yes, but this technique actually worked better for me. You're just going to take your tutip and then, you know, dip it into some acrylic paint and then remove the excess. And you're going to go and kind of drag the paint on those edges. You can use paint sponge, I think those are cold. But when I was painting this part, I did not remember that I had one. I kind of remembered that afterwards. So yeah, for me, but you can use that or you can use a tutip as well. They are not going to be living in any residue. So just, you know, pop out all the edges. And this is what happens when you make mistakes. You can always take your one of your brushes. In this case, I'm using the fine brush and just again, dipping it into some acrylic paint with the white one. And just kind of erasing those places where you just went too far. And this is going to like like an eraser. And then we're going to just write our music. I think you follow any particular font. I just went towards whatever was on my mind. But you can always search for different fonts to like and try to write what you see. So I just took my Sharpie and I started writing that. And then I went up with my white acrylic paint and my really fine brush. And I just simply, you know, followed the lines that I wrote before. And then the heart did the outline and then filled it in. I did a couple of coats of the red one. It should have been better if I first had painted the heart in white. And then let it dry and then go on top of the white with the red. Because the red is going to be much vibrant. Since you're working over a dark surface, it's kind of harder for colors to just be vibrant as they are when they are over a dark surface. So next time I do it or you know, next time you do it, just try to have that inconsequation. And then I let it dry for about overnight. And then the next day, I simply went outside, grabbed some gloves and grabbed my gloves and just started spraying the whole thing. You can just satin as well or just matte finish except to you. So next time I paint another iPhone case or case in general, I'm just going to be sharing it because I think it's so much fun. And it's like kind of liberating because you kind of lift your inner artist like kind of create what he wants. So definitely go for it if you do let me know. If you like this idea and this video, don't forget to give me a thumbs up, share it, and subscribe for more fun stuff. Don't forget to check out my vlogs for some close ups. And if you go for this idea, don't forget to submit your creations over to your Instagram. I would love to see your art. And thank you so much for watching. Take care to you in the next DIY segment. And take care. Bye guys.
