Hello Everyone…
Arpita here, hope you all are staying home and staying safe. In this lockdown time, here is a decoupage tutorial step by step for you all. I had this old Chipboard box which was great to store my trinket’s. So upcycled and gave it a new lease of life. Have Decoupage’d the box creating a faux palette wood background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a decoupage tutorial step by step for you all –<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have painted the complete outside of the box with Butter Cream Chalky Paint. Have given 2 coats of the paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have applied texture paste using a pallet knife randomly on all sides of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this stage felt the yellow was overpowering. So applied one thin coat of Snow white Chalky Paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the shades of pink and brown I added color using the dry brush technique. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dry Brush technique – load your brush with paint and take of the excess paint from the brush and with a light hand paint the surface. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next I drew lines to create a faux palette wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I fussy cut the flowers I wanted to use from the Spring Time Decoupage papers and stuck them using the Decoupage glue. Gave a top coat using the same decoupage glue and finally sealed with a acrylic varnish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So here is the final look<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
