In our areas there is a lot of sandstone, it is not very good for this work, but for the absence of the other, too. Better, of course, if there is granite. Now the summer season, so if you are going to the sea with your own move, you can capture a couple of similar boiled bog. Previously wash it well and dried. After driving, it is very desirable to open the stone with lacquer, so that the paint is well put on it. Ideal if it is a varnish for stones. But if there is no such next, any other, except for water.
2. Breasting our peasons from all sides. Be sure to dry well before priming the other side
3. Select a napkin with a picture in size. Napkin before work stroke the hot iron. We break down its edges so that there are no joints.
4. Remove the topmost layer of napkins with an image, put down the face down on the file and pour over the water, in the process of throwing it with your fingers. And the stone is coated with decoupage glue, or pva diluted with 1x1 with water.
5. We drain the water from the file, turn it over and apply to the stone. Carefully remove the file, if necessary, we will use the edges of the napkin, so that they stick to the stone. I can walk with a glue with a glue or decoupage, leveling the surface. Since the work is designed for the street, I advise you hard to bother with folds. All the same, they can not be seen (may the masts of the decoupage forgive me)! After the napkin is driving, it must be covered with a protective varnish.
6. Covers our stone paint. It is best to make a sponge. Here I use acrylic paints on a water basis (someone will say: what waste!). You can use conventional paints for finishing works. Be sure to dry out the paint layers.
7. Slightly toning our pebbles under the color of the picture. I appline a drop of paint on the background and lightly smear it with wet napkins or a piece of wet fabric. In this case, it is better to take paints on a water basis, they are easier to rub.
8. The resulting beauty must be opened with varnish, if desired, you can more than once. Of course it should not be on a water basis, because our stone needs to carry any weather conditions! Well, it remains for small! Find a suitable place in the yard or in the garden! Author Olga Lipeiev.
