You are soooo right, right on, sister. All your input is so much appreciated. Another thought (see how you inspire me?): Slightly crumple some newspaper or other papers to place underneath, if you want even more variety!<br />Thanks again, Cat.<br />PaulaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7735108486731752976.post-29405579669329624912015-11-11T22:18:50.297-06:002015-11-11T22:18:50.297-06:00I like having permission to start with doilies / w...I like having permission to start with doilies / wallpaper and go on from there. As for spraypainting, sometimes when I'm spraypainting something practical (not an art project), I save the newspaper I put down on the ground underneath to use later for collage projects. The text will show through the paint in places adding another bit of visual interest. Sometimes I like to put some nicer, plain paper underneath and save that. Now you've given me another item to stick under the object being painted! I don't aim to saturate the paper underneath, but let it catch whatever random overspray there is. As quick and effective as spraypainting is, I always feel like lots of the paint is wasted, ending up on the newspaper that is then thrown away. Saving it saves both time and money.
