After an near-to-all-nighter, I managed to finish the first batch of ornaments last weekend. So yesterday I sat down and cranked out six from the second batch, which are now hanging in the garage after getting paint penned today. Now that I'm making masking tape stencils for everything, and I found a wider brush for painting the crosses, I'm getting the acrylic phase done much quicker. I ended up combining the two paints for a better look: acrylic as a primer, because it sticks to the glass better, and paint pen on the top because it covers better.
The fumes aren't bothering me as much any more, which is good... unless of course they've killed the fume-detecting part of my brain, which would be bad. Either way I'm not coughing as much anymore, which means that it was probably more remnants of that cold instead of the paint.
So, anyway, that's the extent of the ornament update for now. It's been nice to spread them all out, because like right now, I get whole days where I don't even want to look at orange paint. Burnout, thy name is Robyn.
