1. Remove backer from silk screen stencil and position to the left on pillow case.

3. Wash out screen stencil and blot dry.

4. Repeat steps 1-3 to place and adhere second chandelier on the right side of pillow case.

Apply Cosmopolitan Metallic paint in the same manner as before. Allow painted chandelier designs to dry completely (about 2 hours) before proceeding.

5. Repeat steps 1-3 to place and adhere third chandelier in center of pillow.

Continue until design is completely covered in a thin coat of adhesive. Let stand for 30 seconds. Repeat creating a thick even coat.
