Decoupage

by

I have only tried decoupage once, and the results were so embarassing that I did not complete the project.

Despite following instructions, my project looked more like a “before” than an “after”, and the tin that I was covering looked far better before I got my hands on it. Because of this, I have been seeking clear and simple instructions on decoupage so that I too can create projects that I am proud of. My searches have found many sites that dabble in decoupage:

My goal for this weekend is to try out a technique from one of these sites and report back.
