PAGE 2 OF 4 STEP 3 • Starting at the top edge of foam board half circle, hot glue the first strip of cooking sheet following the curve. Wrap until it runs out. Overlap the second strip by 1/2 inch and continue to opposite end. • Glue second half circle of foam board to opposite side. • After both half circles are glued to the cooking sheet strip, trim extra strip to top of half circles. Trim excess to top edge of half circles. Overlap STEP 4 Make 1/2 inch cuts to the edge of the half circle. All the way around on both sides. PAGE 3 OF 4 STEP 5 Fold down and glue cut edges. When you’re done it should look like this on both sides. STEP 6 Lightly spackle entire project paying close attention to edges and the connecting seam. Let dry completely. Lightly sand smooth. It’s ok if it looks rough, it adds texture. STEP 7 Glue on both sizes of half beads with hot glue. I put beads on both sides. STEP 8 Glue on 20mm bead feet. I spackled the holes and let dry before gluing them on. STEP 9 Cover the entire project with Susan’s Faux Stucco Mix. Let dry. STEP 10 Leave plain or add a rustic look by lightly rubbing on a stain. I used Waverly Antique wax with a baby wipe. PAGE 4 OF 4
