Summer Craft Project - Decorated Paper Maché Frame with Cats Motif

Copyright: All patterns, pictures and text found on Craftideas.info are property of this website and may be only printed out and used for private or non-commercial purposes. It is not permitted to use them on the internet or in any other publication.

For this project you will need:

- Paper maché picture frame (outside
  measuring 27cm x 27 cm and inside of
  frame 20cm x 20 cm- frame is in one piece
  with backing already attached)
- paper napkin with motif of choice (this
  design portraits cats created by Rosina
  Wachtmeister)
- decoupage glue
- gold paint
- gold sparkle dimensional paint (optional)
- flat paint brush
- white and gold acrylic paint
- clear acrylic sealant

Instructions:

1. First of all, paint white on the inside section of the frame. This will help that the motif has more brilliance. Once the paint is dry, paint the remainder of the frame with gold paint and let dry.
2. Take the decoupage glue and paint over the white section. Separate all but the top layer of the paper napkin and place this layer over the glue. Use the paint brush to smooth out any wrinkles. See here >>>
Paper Napkin Decoupage Tutorial for more tips and help. Let the project dry.
3. Once dry, you may wish to use your paint brush and spread a extremely thin amount of dimensional paint over the frame and motif for a little sparkle.
4. Use clear acrylic sealant to protect your paper napkin if desired.
