School "music Fest" Prizes
This is a really good way to adjust your limited butged on prizes, and to use your creativity and talent to help with the short amount of money that your school have.
Draw a Key Symbol
First draw the music symbol on a card roughly just using a pencil, then trace it with a marker, and a thicker line on both sides of the principal line.
The template has to be thick because i have to nail it to a base made of the same material: 9mm mdf.

Trace the Template on the Mdf
Use the template that you already made (previous step) and trace it on a mdf piece.
I use some left overs parts
Trace as many music keys you need. The base has to be flat.

Start Painting
i first painted a coat of white waterbased paint. Then start with the colors. I did two layers of the same color on each prize.
