I’ve been obsessed with flamingos. My daughter is, too. You might remember the flamingo mobile I made last year. Or my flamingo nail art. Or the flamingo themed party my daughter and I planned for her 7th birthday. Here’s another really fun project: flamingo trophy art! I made this project for DecoArt and now I’m sharing it with you here. I hope you love it as much as I do!
Supplies Used to Make Flamingo Trophy Art:
- Plastic flamingo
- Wood plaque
- Patterned paper
- Black feathers
- Americana Decou-Page
- Americana Multi-Surface Acrylics — Pink Tropics
- Patio Paint Outdoor — Cloud White
- Americana Multi-Surface Acrylics — Black Tie
- Primers, Sealers, and Finishes — Americana Matte Spray Finish
- Glue gun
- Sanding tool
- Craft knife

Paint the flamingo’s neck and head with Americana Pink Tropics paint. I think this gives the plastic finish a nicer tone and a more matte look.
Paint the sides of the wood plaque with Americana Pink Tropics paint. Let the first application dry and then paint a second layer of paint over it.
Trace and trim a piece of flowered patterned paper to fit the front of the plaque.
