Paper Napkin Applique or Decoupage with Paper Napkins

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.

 

Try this technique on all sorts of items made of wood, ceramic, glass, terracotta, tiles, cardboard, metal, etc...

When doing paper napkin applique on shiny and smooth surfaces, it may be necessary to prime the surface first to make it rough enough for the napkins to adhere to it.

 

 

Serviettentechnik 1

1. Base coat the item to be decorated with a light color of acrylic paint and let it dry.

2. Tear out the desired design from your paper napkin or cut your motif exactly out and remove the bottom layers.

3. Dot a couple of drops of glue on to the item to be decorated and place the napkin on the item and using a soft paint brush, paint applique glue over the napkin. Start from the center and work your way out to the outer edges. Try to work smooth and avoid ripping the napkin.

4. Let the napkin dry and repeat if necessary on the other side of the item. More pieces may be required, depending on what you are decorating.

5. Once all the napkin pieces are dry, use a paint similar to that of the napkin, and sponge the paint onto the empty spaces in between the napkins.
