I received those containers as a gift with natural tea and cashew nuts, after the containers became empty, I was not willing to throw them away and used them for decoupage.

I decoupaged this book holder using doily technique with decoupage paper, not napkin. This book holder is very useful as it keeps you organized!

Tutorial - Napkin Decoupage on wooden box

Wednesday, August 28, 2013

This wonderful piece of decoupage box is made by my student Lalitha Mohan.
Materials needed:
  • Decoupage glue
  • Any type of MDF or wooden box
  • Decoupage varnish
  • A flat brush
  • A napkin and a sponge
Step 1: Give a base coat using background colour (background colours for decoupage are readily available in Thailand).



Step 2: Dab the box using acrylic or fabric paint in colours of your choice.


Step 3: Coat the area where you want to stick the picture using decoupage glue, and dry it using a hair dryer.


Step 4: The decoupage napkin usually has three layers stuck together, so gently cut the napkin in a desired design and remove the two white layers. Then place the napkin on the area where the glue is applied, dip the sponge in water to wet it, then squeeze the water out, and dab it on top of the napkin. Do not stroke the napkin. Dry it with a hairdryer again.
[Note: If the glue wasn't applied properly in certain areas, you can still apply more glue on top of the napkin!]


Step 5: Finally give a coat of decoupage varnish.


Step 6: Dry using a hair dryer again.Now your master piece is ready to  use.

Stocking flowers - Plumeria

Sunday, June 10, 2012

I made these plumeria flowers at the request of one of my friends.

Stocking Flower - Lotus

Saturday, April 28, 2012

This is another sample of the kits, we made this to show how many lotus and leaves we can make from the contents in the kit.
 
You can easily make four lotus, two buds and six leaves like this without wasting the stocking. All materials included for making the arrangement except the pot.

These are the petals of the lotus I made before putting them together to form a lotus.
After I attached the pieces of petals with one another...
These are the leaves of the lotus.


Stocking Flower - Pansy

Saturday, April 21, 2012

We started selling stocking flower kits and pansy is one of them, so we made this as a sample to show how the finished product looks like to my students. With our kit, you can make a complete arrangement as in the picture above (pot excluded).


The pansy kits are available for sale now. The price for the pansy kit is 220 Rupees.

Stocking Flower - Water Lily

Sunday, April 1, 2012

This is my first post and my first attempt in making stocking flower. I wasn't sure of which flower I should do so I started off with this water lily.


Once I completed the full arrangement... I was very happy.
