The wedding is the beginning of the journey through a new phase of life. We have turned the globe into a companion and created the perfect wedding gift. It's as easy as that: Give the globe a new look with permanent spray from edding and design it to your heart's content with gloss paint markers. If you cut a slit in the globe, you'll also have an attractive money box for the wedding table into which guests can deposit their gifts of money. The permanent spray covers immediately and has a short drying time, so you can quickly continue with the actual colour design. You can decorate the globe with all kinds of motifs: Wedding symbols, greetings, wishes and much more are suitable and can be easily implemented with the glossy paint markers. The lacquer-like opaque colours look great on the black background. We offer the markers in different line widths, from 0.8 mm for very fine drawings to 4 mm if you want to apply thicker lines.

Step 1:

Get all the materials you need ready. We use the permanent spray in black and rose gold. After painting, the globe is designed with the Edding 751 gloss paint markers. The example shows the colours: silver, metallic pink, pastel green and white.

Step 2:

First unscrew the globe and remove the map foil from the globe. Use the cutter to cut a slot for the money gifts. Then spray the globe all over with black permanent spray. Cover the work surface with foil first. In our Spray 1x1 we give important tips on how to spray the globe perfectly. Spray the base and the bow of the globe in rose gold or another colour of your choice.

Step 3:

When the spray paint is thoroughly dry, you can continue to design it with the gloss paint markers. Activate the marker as follows: Shake the marker vigorously with the cap closed, remove the cap and pump the marker a few times on an absorbent paper until the ink appears in the tip. Now you can start. After use, always close the marker well and store it horizontally.

Step 4:

If you like, you can also delicately sketch the planned motifs and words with a pencil. Then, in the next step, you only need to colour everything with the glossy paint marker. All kinds of heartfelt motifs, congratulations to the bride and groom, travel ideas and much more are suitable for the wedding. Let your imagination run wild!

Step 5:

Use the glossy paint markers to trace all motifs and texts. It is particularly attractive if you write the texts in completely different styles, sometimes thicker, sometimes very thin and narrow or emphasise individual letters.
