Windowcolor

What is windowcolor (Malvorlagen, Fensterbilder)? It is an excellent method to decorate every smooth surface. For example: windows, mirrors, tiles, glasses, metals and anything else.

The windows have the advantage that the sun shines through the pictures, and then the colors come to life.

First, I'll explain the basics of windowcolor. If you want to skip this section, then go to windowcolor tips!

Now back to making windowcolor motifs. Here are what you need:

• Windowcolor contour (outliner)
• Windowcolor paints
• Transparent film (e.g.: transparent PP or PE pocket)
• Pattern (Click here to view my Windowcolor Gallery!)

My favourite paints are the Marabu fun and fancy because of their excellent quality. Another good option is Creall, because of its gorgeous colors.

The contour (outliner) and the actual paint are different. The paint is transparent, but the contour isn't.

So now, you know (and hopefully have) the equipment for windowcolor. Now, you probably want to make something after such a long 'chat'.

When you have everything, (contour, paint, transparent film and a pattern) then you may start:

• Put the transparent film onto the pattern
• Paint the outlines with the contour
• Wait until the contour dries (approximately 1-2 hours)
• Paint the blank spaces with different colors you like
• It will dry after 12-24 hours (Be sure that the picture is completely dry! You can bungle you whole work, if you're impatient!)
• Simply peel off the dried picture and apply it to a smooth surface
