In January 2022, I was wandering around a store, as you do, not looking for anything particular. I wandered past the clearance table and spotted some left over Christmas decorations. These baubles were of a particular shape that immediately put an idea into my head for the following festive season.

An Icosahedron! The classic Christmas decoration, right?

You can probably see where I’m going with this, so we’ll skip on.

I picked up 8 of these. 4 to give to my D&D crew, and the other 4 for my own decoration collection.

Not knowing how they’d take paint etc in their current state, I had the idea to seal them first, then paint/ decorate over the top.

 

I'd previously purchased this can of Crystal Kote for an unrelated project. I thought this would seal the decorations and give us a surface to start decorting on but...I'd previously purchased this can of Crystal Kote for an unrelated project.

Previously: Silver, Red, Geen, White.
At least the white stayed white X-D
