Decopatch is a special kind of paper that is thin at around 20 gsm and can be used to decorate virtually any type of surface. It can be very helpful for artists, interior decorators and furniture designers in beautifying surfaces such as porcelain vases, wooden furniture, plastic fixtures and many others. To use Decopatch, you definitely need to have special Decopatch glue that will be used to melt the paper into the surface.
When you have Decopatch papers and Decopatch glue in your own home, you are given total liberty as to the many designs and patterns that you can add to any fixture in your house to make it more lively and appealing. No matter what that type of fixture might be, there is always a pattern or a collage design that can make it look better.
Decopatch makes it easier for you to beautify items in your home. This type of paper is easy to use and can even be torn without scissors. It is thin enough to give you many choices but is also sturdy and strong which makes it resilient to varnishing and sanding. These papers also give you a variety of colors and even patterns to choose from.
When you are designing an item in your home, you can use several paper patterns or utilize a single Decopatch sheet to achieve a certain look. It gives you a chance to take any old objects that you already have, create a new pattern, pattern or color scheme and transform that old object into something new.
No one can certainly go wrong with Decopatch designing. If you want to make it more customized or to make the object stand out more, you can also use the glue to embellish the object with decorative stones and sequins. Patchliner, a special type of adhesive material that is used with Decopatch can also be used to highlight focal areas or to accent a region in the object.
If you want to add Decopatch to items that are regularly exposed to harsh elements which can promote wear and tear, you can also add a weather proofing varnish. This protective varnish gives you the freedom to decorate items such as mugs, plates, glasses and even outdoor furniture without worrying too much about the design wearing too soon.
Decopatch might be expensive compared to the typical table napkin or colored paper but they are worth every penny with all the styling opportunities that you can do with them.
