Can you explain what you mean with a string?

LahDeeDah 10/24/2015 #

I'd be glad to, Mieke :-)

I'm thinking of a long, thin piece of twisted thread that people normally use to tie things together or hang things. Baker's twine is one good option. A single strand of thread, like one might use to sew a seam in clothing, would be too thin to have much affect on the paint (leave marks in it or move it around) which is why I'm suggesting a heavier string like twine. I hope that helps!

Please let me know if you have any further questions or problems.
