STEAMPUNK BOOKENDS


I've had these plain mdf bookends for a long while now, and wanted to make them a bit more interesting. Seeing as I'm hugely into steampunk, I decided to use some mdf cogs, rather large ones to attach to the bookends.

Firstly, I painted everything in a wash of DecoArt Prussian blue hue paint, dried it, then added a layer of Quinacridone gold over the top, to give an aged and rusty look.

I then added the cogs to the bookends, not easy, but so worth it.
