Art Cafe Angler Stand Fish DIY Project
Create Your Own Stand-Up Fish at Home!
Customize your very own two-sided angler fish, perfect for adding character to your mantle, bookshelf, or desk. Each fish comes with two removable bottle cap eyes, making painting a breeze. The metal fins add a fun mixed-media element—paint them to match your design or leave them as raw wood for a unique touch. These fish are ready for you to bring your creative vision to life!
Painting Tips for Best Results
For best results, “prime” your project with a coat of white paint or primer. Gently sand down the wood grain with sand paper for a smooth painting surface. If you’re feeling extra ambitious, give your project a second coat of “primer” before adding your design for a velvety smooth finish.
Any acrylic craft paint will do, but we recommend using Folk Art Multi-Surface paints.
If you plan to display your project outside, we recommend using Rust-Oleum Acrylic Top Coat Spray to protect your project. Please keep in mind our Art Cafe Projects are made from wood and will weather when exposed to rain and direct sunlight.
