Scratch Block Pick Up at the studio

Come pick up your beautiful iron tiles at the Liberty Arts Studio.

If you weren’t able to get your tiles(s) on Sunday the 17th, please contact info@libertyartsnc.org to schedule a pick up time. We are keeping it/them safe and sound at the Liberty Arts Studio, 918 Pearl St.

To Add A Finish To Your Tile:

If you’d like to add layers or depth to your tile you may follow these instructions:

  1. Put the tile outside for a few weeks to a month - until it rusts

  2. Use steel wool and/or very fine tri-mite sandpaper to “erase” the rust where you’d like the shiny iron to come through.

  3. When you like the effect, spray your tile with Clear Coat. It’s a clear sealant for metal available at JoAnne’s or Michael’s or online.

  4. We’d love to see the finished product, especially if you want to take the time to show the process - before and after pix. Send pictures to info@libertyartsnc.org

Enjoy! You’ve created a fabulous memory!!
