Follow these instructions to complete this project:
1. Peel off the Transfer Backer Sheet and “fuzz” the Transfer by gently pressing onto a Fuzzing Cloth and carefully pulling it upward.
2. Center the Transfer on the surface; smooth it out to ensure it has properly adhered and that there are no bubbles or wrinkles.
3. Knead your Chalkology Paste Singles. Squeeze the desired amount of paste onto a Color Tray, using a new tray for each color.
4. Use your Multi-Tool and Mini Squeegee to apply color over your Transfer (see “Color and Placement Suggestions”). Scrape away excess paste as evenly as possible.
5. For best results, divide your project into sections and use the chalk-and-pull method. Chalk the center section of the design and peel back that portion to let the paste dry before continuing.
6. Gently lay the Transfer back down over the chalked section. Ensure the unchalked sections of the Transfer are fully adhered, without bubbles or wrinkles. Repeat the above steps as you chalk the remainder of the Transfer.
7. Once fully chalked, and before the paste dries, remove Transfer from surface and immediately clean the Transfer with cool water
(do not let it soak).
8. Dry the Transfer flat with the sticky side up. Once dry, reapply the Transfer Backer Sheet and store flat.
9. Bask in the sweetness of your latest project!
Our basic instructions go like this: choose a surface and Transfer, add some paste or ink, and start creating. With the Best Basics Chalk It Up Kit, you’ll have what you need to carry out those instructions and you’ll be well on your way to artistry!
This kit includes two of our favorite surfaces: Board & Base (perfect for A-sized Transfers) and a Sylvie White Frame (perfect for B-sized Transfers). Both surfaces are reusable with Chalkology Paste, and can be used in either landscape or portrait orientation. Plus, that Board & Base is reversible so you can have two projects to display all at once!
What is your favorite summer berry? Mine is strawberries! 🍓
