Day one
We will focus on the basic techniques of decoupage. In this course you will begin to change
a plain wooden box into something beautiful, customizing it to reflect your own ideas and
and personality. We will discuss the different prep techniques and collage skills. If you
would like you can bring a couple of items (postcards, special papers, etc.) to add to
your project, however I will have a large variety of media to choose from. And having a
theme in mind can help before you begin your project.
Day two
We will focus on applying the basic crackle finish to your collaged box to make the
object have the illusion of age. We will apply 3-D materials to make your box come
alive and then begin the varnishing step.
