Looking for How-To's to make pictures using nails hammered into wood & then painting nail heads like flowers.

The nails are hammered in at different depths. Use nails with different size heads. Some are painted to make a flower on 1 head, others use several heads to make 1 flower.Looking for How-To's to make pictures using nails hammered into wood %26amp; then painting nail heads like flowers.
I did similar work in the ninetees but with screws. I liked the look of it and sold some of them. What I did was I used plywood 3/4 thick and screwed the screws in in different shapes and then painted shapes around them and also painted the heads different colors and left some heads exposed . the screws come in different colors too. I used acrylic paint and gel midium for sheen.

Try Michaels or any local arts %26amp; crafts store. Michaels lets you order on-line.
not sure,


not too many nails heads are large enough to paint a whole flower on,


sounds like a very unique craft


may need to check local library how to books,

paint the picture on a firm but flexible paper first with something like oil paint, hammer the nails into the board without paint, then press the paper paint-side down onto the nails. If the paper's flexible enough, you should be able to ';print'; it onto the nails. It may not get some of the lower ones, but you can always re-paint those based on the marks on the picture. Also, it will come out reversed, so paint words as a mirror image.
try some colorful cardboard to make the petal use tackey glue, super glue or fabric paint to hold the petal on the nail
