Colored Brads?

http://ckmedia.a.mms.mavenapps.net/mms/rt/1/site/ckmedia-pub01-live/current/launch.html?maven_playerId=embededplayer&maven_referralPlaylistId=153ef8399c1bfb296e0cbc1688d2bc67f9775e90&maven_referralObject=338632596

Believe it or not, I find things all over the internet... This tutorial is from QVC and from Creating Keepsakes....You can color your brads if you're in a pinch and you have some Acrylic Paint that matches your project!

Try it....it might be messy...

one thing I thought of...use a plastic folder instead of punching paper...you can save paper, and time by having it pre-punched, and you can also wipe it down and re-use it..and it might make the brad not stick as much after being painted!

  1. Painting your own brads? That's an idea! And using a plastic folder instead of paper is actually a great suggestion! ~Cindy Barraza

  2. I'm not sure I'd resort to painting my own brads! The likelihood that I'd have the right color of acrylic paint handy would be low, and it just looked messy. Plus I'm not sure the paint finish would be secure if not coated with something to protect it. Have you tried this yourself yet, Dianne?
