Decoupage

This technique has French roots. Previously, they were preparing a special paper with ornamentation to lay out the decorative elements. As materials for decorating a homemade casket, the following components will be used:

• Cuttings from fabric or fashion magazines;
• Glue binder;
• Paint with a brush;
• Lacquer.

Using scissors from logs, the details of the pattern are cut out. They are applied to the surface of the product, after which the glue is applied from above.

If you use fabric, then instead of glue it is recommended to use a stapler for fastening the elements. You can also do without varnish.

After drying the product, it is varnished. In this technique, the use of photo cards is welcome. They are previously rid of the lower layer. You can decorate the box not only from the outside, but also in the inside.

       

Vinyl wallpapers

Popular material is well suited for decorating the product in question. Their relief texture perfectly looks on a wooden or cardboard box. In this case, the pattern on the surface can be absolutely anything. However, it is desirable that its dimensions coincide with the dimensions of the cover of the future accessory. An exception is an abstraction.

The technology of creation implies the following actions:

• First exact measurements of the box are made. Next, a pattern of material is made;
• After the vinyl material has been cut, it is recommended to soak it in water. This is necessary to separate the vinyl from the paper substrate. A clean layer of wallpaper will lie flat on the surface. However, this is a laborious procedure, with which not everyone can cope;
• Then a glue binder is applied to the vinyl layer. If the paper base is left in place, it should also be smeared;
• The material is fixed on the product under the press;

The surface can later be decorated with herbarium or artificial flowers.

• Then the product is covered with a multilayer varnish;
• When using the print it is recommended to use acrylic paint. This allows you to show maximum imagination. Popular shades for creating an accessory with their own hands are gold and bronze.

The latter can be further aged, if combined with green. Also I will look good silver glare. After finishing works the surface is covered with a multilayer colorless varnish.

       

Painting

Many craftsmen want to show their artistic talents. The technique of painting for this fits perfectly. Some scenery options require special education. However, beginners can use stencils.

This technique assumes the following steps:

• Preparation of the product for work. It includes a mandatory degreasing, as low-visibility spots appear after application of the paint;

• Also, you can not do without priming with white paint. This is important for the purity of the colors used;

• When the preliminary manipulation is completed, the surface of the product is covered with a basic tone;
• You can use different types of stencils to perform the painting. Some contain an adhesive basis for convenience. Others have to be fixed with an ordinary tape. It is recommended to apply several sketches for the purity of the experiment;

• To darken the corners a semi-dry sponge is used. It dipped in the dyeing material and wiped with a napkin. Then you can use it to create an attractive haze at the corners of the casket;

• Another option for darkening corners is to pre-use a darker shade. If the main background is blue, then the corners must be covered in blue. This contrast tone can be softened with wax or sandpaper. This will give the charm to the future accessory. After the drying out of the corners, the planes are covered with the main tone;
• The finished product must be treated with a colorless varnish.

       

Expensive paint from an art store can be replaced with an acrylic version from a regular store. To achieve the necessary shades in this case is not difficult, if you use this or that color. One can of inexpensive paint is enough for just a dozen boxes.

Volumetric decor

The application of this technique also involves a number of preliminary actions. This is due to the fact that a stencil and a special paste are used here. Some needlewomen successfully replace it with putty. This gives an accessory in vintage style. Exquisite design is gaining its volume already at the priming stage. Before this we remember that it is necessary to degrease the surface. With the corners should be at your own discretion, as the technology is already familiar from the previous paragraph.

After staining and drying the product, a stencil is attached to the surface. Puttying is carried out in two stages, between which it is desirable to clean the sketch. Immediately after applying the paste, it is necessary to correct possible irregularities with the help of a toothpick. A soft cloth for removing surpluses should also be at hand. If the defect is found after a time, you will need to wet a place to soften the material. Then it is necessary to coat the product with varnish. To create a characteristic convexity, diluted bitumen can be used. Next, using a thin brush paint these places the main tone. Then again coat the product with varnish.
