The art or technique of decorating something with cut-outs of paper, linoleum, plastic or other flat material over which varnish or lacquer is applied
 |
| Exhibit A - aluminum soup can |
|
|
Brush a coat of Mod Podge along the exterior of the aluminum can
Wrap your pre-cut scrapbook paper around the aluminum can - work slow being aware of air bubbles
Once scrapbook paper is smoothly wrapped around the can, cover with decoupage - several layers
(let dry in-between coats)
 |
| Tray - Before |
 |
| I thought it was a cool idea to turn the trays into picture frames (this was a very short lived idea) |
 |
| Tray - After (used scrapbook paper and decoupage) |
 |
| Using the tray to hold stationary goods |
 |
| I had been hoarding movie and concert ticket stubs since High School - I finally found a functional home for them! |
 |
| I made this sign for my sister's hair station |
|
What you'll need:
- Small/Med sized canvas (I purchased this one at SAVERS - I painted over the existing art with several coats of cream colored acrylic paint.
- The gold and white on either end of the canvas are pieces of patterned tissue paper
- The scissors are cut from magazine advertisements
- The name is spelled out using wood letter pieces (scrabble pieces would work)
- Glue all items onto the canvas with decoupage
- Cover entire piece with several layers of decoupage (let dry in-between coats)
 |
| Another piece for my Sister's work station |
Same concept as the Jaime Meyers canvas - hair scissors were cut from a magazine advertisement & lady and letters were cut from a pin up calendar.
