How to make a decoupage candle holder
Decoupage (or découpage) is the art of decorating an object by gluing colored paper cutouts onto it in combination with special paint effects, gold leaf and so on. The craft became known as découpage in France (from the verb découper, ‘to cut out’) as it attained great popularity during the 17th and 18th centuries. YOU WILL NEED: – Something to decoupage onto, such as a glass jar. – Tissue paper, wrapping paper, printed clip art, fabric, lace etc. – Cutting utensil. Scissors or craft knife. I like the effect of torn edges best. – Glue. Standard white glue works best if it is diluted with a little water. – Smoother/Glue Spreader. I use a paint brush.
