Decoupage Pillow Candle Holder

Hello Everyone

Arpita here, December is Christmas month and I have already started prepping for Christmas decorations. Today I have Decoupage’d a concrete pillow candle holder which will make a beautiful table decoration.

I will use a tissue to decoupage as they are perfect when you have uneven surface like this pillow holder and they look absolutely Gorgeous.

Pictorial Of the Decoupage Pillow Candle Holder

I choose this lovely tissue,which was perfect for this Christmas project.

Tear the edges of the tissue by slightly wetting the brush with water. Having uneven edges will help in blending the tissue and the background painting.

Tissues come as 2ply and 3ply tissues. So always remember to remove the extra layers .You will be working only with the top layer.

Next using the Craftangles decoupage glue I stuck down the tissue. For the best results always work in small portions while sticking the tissue and apply very little glue to avoid getting wrinkles and bubbles.

Next I blended the tissue and the background by doing shading with the ruby red and snow white chalky paints.

Finally I sealed with the Craftangles varnish and as it was still wet I sprinkled Craftangles Shimmer dust. I absolutely loved the effect of the shimmer dust it is so shiny and Beautiful ,I really wish I could capture the shine of this glitter better in the pictures. But believe me it’s just gorgeous and I am in love with it.

Here is the final look of the candle holder

Arpita Tornal

Decoupage'd Diya Platter

Hello Everyone

Arpita here,hope you all are doing fine.As Diwali is nearing today I am sharing a very easy and a beautiful project to make this festival.

Here is a detailed pictorial of the decoupage diya platter

I choose the Craftangles orange squash chalk paint . Painted the base with 2 coats letting them dry inbetween each coat.

Next i cut a strip from the Craftangles Floral Batik decoupage paper and stuck it using the decoupage glue. Also sealed the paper using the same glue.

Chose this Beautiful design of stencil to add texture. Used the Craftangles texture paste for the same.

Once the texture paste dried completely, covered it with the orange squash chalky paint and highlighted the texture with gold paint.

Finally gave a coat of Varnish to the whole platter and while the varnish was still wet sprinkled fairy dust on the decoupage’d part . The fairy dust is just perfect to add sparkle to your projects this festive season.

To place the diya made diy stands using mini empty bottles which I Decoupage’d using the same paper. Lastly decorated with some flowers.

Here is the final look
