An Easy Idea For Decoupaging Any Surface

Decoupage can be traced back the French word "couper" which means "to cut". In the below article you will find an easy idea for decoupaging any surface. The use of images and pictures is widely used in the Decoupage world. The use of varnish or polyurethane to stick or paste images onto surfaces is also known as Decoupage.

Here are my very easy to follow instructions:

Step 1. First clean and dry the surface which you are about to decoupage. Make sure all painted surfaces are completely dry before we start to decoupage.

Step 2 is to cut out the images we want to paste onto our surface.

Step 3. After cutting out all your images, we now need to organize them before we start to layer the decoupage medium (glue). Place the images in any order that you desire. Depending on the effect you are trying to create you can also overlap your images.

Step 4. Now spread a layer of decoupage medium over the surface of where you wish to glue your images.

Step 5. Using your fingers we will now gently place and glue the images onto the object's surface.

Step 6. Continue with the last 2 steps until you have pasted all your images onto the surface.

After following the above step by step instructions you need to dry out the decoupage medium entirely. Once the first medium coat has dried you can continue to add further coats of the medium until you get your desired result.
