A calm, practical path from idea to finished piece.
In this masterclass, we'll explore the art of decoupage on fabric and transform a simple cushion cover into a unique decorative statement piece. You'll learn how to properly prepare fabric for decoupage, use chalk paints to create beautiful blended backgrounds and work with different mediums to maintain the flexibility and softness of the fabric. We'll then move on to applying rice paper, achieving seamless blending and finishing the project with special sealing techniques designed to preserve the colours permanently while maintaining the fabric's flexibility. A beautiful way to bring artistic designs and personalised details into your home decor! Please note the colors and rice paper is not 100% water proof. Mild and gentle washing is required , no scrubbing or machine wash.
