Review

“Filled with attractive photos… 30 projects lead off the text, and there’s a wealth of information about materials and techniques.” -- Booklist

From the Publisher

Not since Victorian times has the charming craft of découpage enjoyed such popularity. Découpage: A Practical Step–by–Step Guide reveals the endless variety of articles of all shapes, sizes, and surfaces that can be embellished with decorative paper, from candlesticks and wooden trays to large pieces of furniture, like chests, tables, and cupboards. With clear step–by–step photos and detailed instructions, the book guides the reader through all the necessary materials and techniques, from cutting out the decorative images to varnishing and sanding the finished work. One hundred and fifty color photos illustrate 30 projects as well as an inspiring selection of finished pieces. A Crafter’s Choice Book Club Main Selection

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, but make sure you don't already have it, June 24, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Decoupage: A Practical Step-by-Step Guide (Paperback)

So as to not duplicate a book purchase: this is the softcopy of the hard cover "Practical Decoupage" published in 1993. It is a wonderful book with great photographs and ideas.
