Decoupage on wood and floral application

In this simple video tutorial, dedicated to the decoupage technique, you will see how to customize a simple wooden box also applying a floral decoration. The aforementioned floral application will be made of plastic and paper.

For this work of decoupage, you will have to use the following materials: 

• a plastic plate, 
• a wooden box, 
• of brown acrylic color, 
• a brush, fine sandpaper,
• vinyl glue, 
• gift card, 
• a black stamp, 
• a sheet of transparent plastic, 
• napkin with floral pattern,
• a candle, hot glue.

Procedure: 

In a bowl pour a medium amount of brown acrylic and with a brush start spreading the color over the entire surface, if the color is too thick, dilute it with a little water. Pass only one coat of color, since you will have to see the grain of the wood. Now, with some fine sandpaper, start sanding the surface of the box a little bit. At this point, proceed to decorate the top of the box, glue the gift card and along the tamponing edges with a black stamp.

Now, you'll have to create the floral decoration in 3D, that is, take the floral napkin and remove all the layers of paper and cut the shape of the flower. Glue the latter on a sheet of transparent plastic with vinyl glue. Next, cut the various pieces of the flower and shape them with the heat of a candle flame. Finally, with the hot glue, assemble the various pieces and place them in the center of the box cap.
