Perfect Polka Dots Every Time
***This suggestion does not come from me******This is from a woman named Charleen, who has been with NEC since "08"****This is her suggestion on how to make perfect polka dots every time*****
"Hi all.....
For perfect polka dots....the size of a CD hole, I use the Loew Cornell Style Stix - I believe I bought them at Hobby Lobby. They come in a set of 4 sizes for around $6 - $7. I use the second from the largest. They have round, firm, dome shaped sponge tips and are made just for making circles and dots. They work beautifully and are very fast and the edges are perfect each time. I just drop 2 or 3 drops of paint where I want the polka dot, then holding the handle of the Stix straight up and down , carefully mash the sponge dome into the paint and it spreads out to the size you want. When I have finished making all the dots on a board, I spoon glitter over the dots and flip it over tapping on the back w/my finger to shake the excess glitter back into my glitter bowl. I then set the board aside to dry, preferably over-night and repeat the process again on the next until I have all of my boards polka dotted. This is a quick process and you should have perfect circles each time."*****end of her suggestion****
I attached a picture of the Loew Cornell Style Stix, so that you can see what Charleen is talking about.
P.S. Charleen,just in case I am showing the wrong product, I'm sorry
