Kitchens: Black, White and Gold

<div style="text-align: center;">My biggest concern for the<span style="color: #ea9999;"> <a href="http://tiffanyleighinteriordesign.blogspot.ca/2013/10/advanced-residential-project_24.html" target="_blank">'piano mansion'</a></span> project that I'm working on is keeping it from being tacky or overt. I think with design there is power in subtlety and although the exterior is going to have a curvature and pitched roof recalling the shape of the piano, it will NOT be black and white. I'm thinking it will probably be grey brick but I'm still experimenting...any thoughts? I've also broadened my concept to the elegant and powerful experience of a concert hall in a larger sense. But I still want to pay homage to ebony and ivory keys through some of the interior finishes. This led me on a hunt for black and white kitchens.

<div style="text-align: center;">This Saturday is <a href="http://www.blogpodium.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Blogpodium</span></a>. I'm so excited, and also a little bit nervous.

I especially like her word art, so I decided to recreate the look with some glitter, some glue, and a homemade stencil!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj-H7P3EGeMnULONG0XSE11hgZmXCzbm_rFmoO523od3D3qNHDxrkjy0SVlZHRJInb_z_C_C3c97s9mvGiZIc60ydxEnWL8yD2sii2cBVZA7JZzTIkm74N9Gryk0SW44meejcRGoBo-T74/s1600/002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj-H7P3EGeMnULONG0XSE11hgZmXCzbm_rFmoO523od3D3qNHDxrkjy0SVlZHRJInb_z_C_C3c97s9mvGiZIc60ydxEnWL8yD2sii2cBVZA7JZzTIkm74N9Gryk0SW44meejcRGoBo-T74/s320/002.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>The materials:<br />1. A picture frame<br />2. Painter's tape<br />3. 24 kt Gold Extra Fine Glitter (or any colour you want!)<br />4. Permanent Marker<br />5. Fine cutting knife<br />6. Spray glue (The jar of glue you see pictured didn't work)<br />7. Cutting Surface<br />8. Cardstock Paper (I used printer paper, but it got so wrinkled..go with a heavier stock)<br />9. Overhead paper (You know..that clear plastic paper)<br />10. Newspaper<br />11.

Also use painters tape in the center of letters where you do not want glitter (like I did here in the B, Ls and A).<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6UfEvhpMsJuX02TT0dEizz_aOpEVzjTiWbAb0cStzr2iLGqKLnacnU4kyL6FTr04FdAvgyeGI8MqHJH1N9EFDrWah4gArg1VvyHWfxH6I5v1hynhz4lgpeAf8usiYrwlAU1OyIVT0zjzD/s1600/007.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6UfEvhpMsJuX02TT0dEizz_aOpEVzjTiWbAb0cStzr2iLGqKLnacnU4kyL6FTr04FdAvgyeGI8MqHJH1N9EFDrWah4gArg1VvyHWfxH6I5v1hynhz4lgpeAf8usiYrwlAU1OyIVT0zjzD/s640/007.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>This step was an epic fail.  Save yourself the hassel and use spray glue over your entire stencil (also make sure everywhere you don't want glue is covered in painters tape.

Leave for about 20 minutes, remove the book and newspaper. Shake off all the excess glitter (I was able to pour most of it back into the jar).  Lastly, spray the piece again with the spray glue to seal in the glitter. Let it dry for about 20 more minutes. Carefully peel off the painters tape and stencil.<br />Frame your masterpiece!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIRAWegXNZ9SscMJZMrHlTadP_ztQcO-LQ4n-OMliNCzBTvrqLMLg5-WDoogI-zs_oaGXpbB3-YSAitLEuHiMLEkSrPI2SapOAPPPGmyO-dBZf9vrjY01jUJWd6J2SCzoKaFarWeaGiTeX/s1600/012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIRAWegXNZ9SscMJZMrHlTadP_ztQcO-LQ4n-OMliNCzBTvrqLMLg5-WDoogI-zs_oaGXpbB3-YSAitLEuHiMLEkSrPI2SapOAPPPGmyO-dBZf9vrjY01jUJWd6J2SCzoKaFarWeaGiTeX/s640/012.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF5rMKgWhgmmWLv5XgN7OTdSvSHKuqV-AqBB3_ctpy79pLVHszL97T-VRWSkzFSb3zmetCflAnISLYkpdqXBER3n8pKW4fbPUboy-i0qVnN1pBTmQaMMk3jOcLHYk_yXhh2MNHVRzQPwbl/s1600/013.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF5rMKgWhgmmWLv5XgN7OTdSvSHKuqV-AqBB3_ctpy79pLVHszL97T-VRWSkzFSb3zmetCflAnISLYkpdqXBER3n8pKW4fbPUboy-i0qVnN1pBTmQaMMk3jOcLHYk_yXhh2MNHVRzQPwbl/s640/013.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5zBju5MNwJHjsjwpBMleqhQw1wHVCJfTZbA3qFOKzULbR790lCr2i7W2mBEB3tTOAL1uT25CJECKUSL5VnOSW2bBaUoYn_sN9M1t8c6jGIdHEOpjr8K__JUcBfpoQl86svNqiFbjK0EkL/s1600/018.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="595" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5zBju5MNwJHjsjwpBMleqhQw1wHVCJfTZbA3qFOKzULbR790lCr2i7W2mBEB3tTOAL1uT25CJECKUSL5VnOSW2bBaUoYn_sN9M1t8c6jGIdHEOpjr8K__JUcBfpoQl86svNqiFbjK0EkL/s640/018.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwxp-ft5OMmB4ZthKvl8Z2lPEk0yAriYZ-sCLyJUigSH_1_rqIo4ZqUltyvQj8DuxLlQOrPmOKMsAuYiC3hi70094OFBgSwarot0XPbkSzSsrxOlwpMphYUiUomnZJuVdcNk2vgkLyn1l-/s1600/019.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwxp-ft5OMmB4ZthKvl8Z2lPEk0yAriYZ-sCLyJUigSH_1_rqIo4ZqUltyvQj8DuxLlQOrPmOKMsAuYiC3hi70094OFBgSwarot0XPbkSzSsrxOlwpMphYUiUomnZJuVdcNk2vgkLyn1l-/s640/019.JPG" width="480" /></a></div>I love how sparkly and glittery it turned out, it even has a bit of a 3D pop.

The word 'brilliant' sitting on my desk will inspire me to believe in my ideas every day!<br />Now that I've taken you through the whole messy process...I will let you in on my secret for the NEXT time I create some glitter art....glitter paper. I think it'll make the whole process a lot less messy. <br />What do you think?!<br />xo<br /><a href="http://s1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/?action=view&current=Tiffany-27.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/Tiffany-27.jpg" /> </a><br />Ps.
