When it became clear that our daughter and our daughter will appear with her husband, we, like all young parents, wanted all the best and beautiful for her. We began to prepare her children's room. But when we wondered about the furniture for the children's question, I wanted something unusual, gentle, interesting ... ..
We went to the store and saw that what we can afford, we didn't like because everything is standard - the same, when we found what we really liked, it turned out that this furniture is completely transcendental prices. We were upset and went to the store, which I drive to inspiration. IKEA. I do not know why it comes to me there, but nevertheless it happened again. As soon as I saw the chest of dresser and the wardrobe is a mosaic. It remains only to think about the history of the usual chest to a fabulous Larkor. And so I needed:
-chest of drawers
-cupboard
-Pilent cards
-Klas for decoupage
-Lak for decoupage
-acrylic paints
-scissors
-Lak
-Valik
In an art store, I bought decoupage cards - this is actually a set of pictures on a very thin paper is just thin paper, it happens rice paper.
In my experience, it is better to draw a drawing on rice paper - it's easier to cut it, especially small details (I had a lot of herbs), glue and on the finished work the picture looks really as drawn.
You can take napkins with a pattern that you like. It is more convenient to first cut the drawing, and then split the napkin on the layers (there are two and three layers), leaving only a layer with the drawdrice.
Many say that it is possible to cut the drawing on the contour by hand, but I still advise you to cut the drawing, and the more accurate and carefully cut it out, the neat will be the end result.
And after some time and a lot of effort, I still cut out countless gnomes, butterflies, fungi, etc. I must say that looking at the number of cut pictures, I called myself
Now we start the most interesting - creative process. The main thing is not to overdo it. And it is necessary to create only in a good mood - then it turns out everything!
First my surface with soap to degrease.
Now we decide where and how the drawing will be located. Of course, it's better not to represent.
I uringed the picture with water and applied it to the surface. It is quite a long time it is holding and allows you to present the entire composition completely, move the picture or completely remove.
It happens that the eye is "climbing" - you do not see whether it turned out enough - throw, leave ... .. Make a coffee break or better go to bed - let the brain and eyes rest.
It is like the smell when in a perfume store you choose perfume, and smells are mixed with you in one shapeless bunch and understand that it is absolutely not possible. But it is worth making a sip of water, as all the receptors are cleaned, and a clear and sharp perception is restored.
So do not hurry and do not strive to do everything at once.
When everything is weighed and decided where every detail will be, we begin to glue - it's important here !!! If you have a drawing on paper, then it is necessary to observe it first from the wrong side, and then applay on the surface. Top covers another layer of glue, so that the paper is good, strongly wet.
With rice paper or napkins easier - they are enough to attach and immediately apply glue into the picture, such a paper flows away at once. Try not to get out of the edges of the pictures, since on some surfaces the glue can be noticeable and then wash it on. Let me dry.
The drawings are different, like the surface, and sometimes you want to strengthen the "drawing effect". I want to add several strokes with a brush. For this, acrylic paints are perfect. You can add several strokes, for example, to circulate red berries and they get more voluminous.
And as soon as you do everything, it will only be covered with varnish. And enjoy your creation!
My daughter is now 7 years old, I did the furniture when she was still no one. We use all the complaints.
Thanks for your attention, I hope someone will turn inspiration.
