I found the Kelly's stuff, had the same (or worse) problems than you had. Went back to the Delta stuff, painted on the outside. So far, so good. Trying to save some of the ones that dried unevenly with the Kelly's. I can always tuck those back in the foliage if they are too uneven!

I did get the Gallery Glass in one color. I got some more ornaments at Beverly's. I'll try the Gallery Glass once I get some of these others finished. They seem to need several coats. I did have some questions on the Gallery Glass:

What colors did you buy? Their color names are strange. Like Plum and Morning Glory. Which one is just plain purple!?! What is a good green? Kelly? Lime? I wish they had swatches!

Did you use the clear protective coat on top? I bought it. Thought it might help. Lemme know if you used it and liked it or hated it.

One of these days I'll have something done to show everyone! I think maybe this is not a good craft for winter in Sacramento. Even though the weather is in the mid 60's during the day lately, it just isn't really warm enough to cure this stuff very fast.
