Wooden altered heart by Lanette Erickson

Hello, All You Amazing Creative People!

Today I am sharing an altered heart, that I found a sweet wooden heart at my local thrift store. I really wasn’t sure how I would alter it, but I knew it had potential.


With the Halloween decorations going up, I found inspiration for my project. I have always been drawn to the bright festive decorations of Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead), so with that in mind, I grabbed a mix of Impasto paints and went to work.  

After painting my heart, I added a few extra details with a couple paint markers and a bit of sparkle with a handful of Finnabair’s Metallic Flakes. I am pretty happy with how this came together. I hope you like it too!



Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope I have inspired you in some small way! 

Until next time, Hugs and have fun creating!

-Lanette
