Decoupage Candles - Simple DIY

 Welcome to a fun DIY!

Decoupage is an art form I’m really getting into at the moment. I have posted decoupage DIY tutorials before, and I thoroughly enjoyed them! You can cover pretty much anything in sheets of gorgeous design – if you have the right glue and a bit of patience, of course. So I thought to myself, how difficult are DIY decoupage candles?

We’ve all seen them at the craft fairs. They look absolutely gorgeous, but also a bit expensive to buy. While I would love to have one of these in every room of my house, I just couldn’t afford to keep it up. So… yup, you guessed it, let’s make them ourselves!!!

I used the heat method to stick the napkin to the candle. I used an old Iron for this purpose. First cut out the tissue paper of the required size. Keep the napkin on the candle and slowly rub the iron on the napkin. you will observe that it will stick to the surface of the candle. cut the extra paper if there is any.

It can be a little bit tricky method but I am sure you gonna love the results!

Wooden Tissue Box Holder

 Hi! Today I am back with a different kind of project. It’s a lovely MDF Tissue Box Holder for your desk/ Kitchen/ Washroom/ Utility that you will use daily to keep your wipes. You can decorate a Wooden Tissue Box Holder to bring you joy when you look at it!!! I made two MDF Tissue Box Holders.

Take a plain wooden Tissue Box Holder from any craft store. Apply a thin layer of gesso to prime it. Decoupage the top of the box with your choice of tissue paper. Apply acrylic paint at the bottom part. Also Make a thin border of some contrasting color. it will help in highlighting the colors of the decoupaged tissue paper. Mostly two coating will be needed of the acrylic color.

Apply 2-3 Coats of Varnish and Voila !! its Done !!

I made one more similar MDF tissue Box holder.

Makeover of Wooden Chowki - Decoupage

Hi Friends,
I am back with a decoupage project. This is my old Chowki which was wearing out from some places. So I thought of a makeover! Browsed my stash and got these coaster decoupage papers. I layered them on the surface and got this look!

 This was the old Chowki.

First through a sand paper scrub the whole surface. Paint 2 layers of Gesso primer. Scrub the surface again to smooth it out. Now layer the decoupage papers. Using Glue paste them. A coat of decoupage is required after it is dry. Now paint the rest of the body through white acrylic paint. Once dry give 2-3 coats of varnish and its done!!!
Here is a video

Hope you like the project! Thanks.

Parivaar Parichay - Family Introduction Book

Hello Friends,
Today I am sharing a very unique project - 'Parivaar Parichay' ("Family Introduction"). According to the tradition, Groom's family gift 'Parivaar Parichay' to the Bride's family. This can be a book or a scroll having introduction of all the family members from the groom's side. To add some interest we use poetic verses for each member in the family. Parivaar Parichay is like a reference of relations for the bride's family.
So following the tradition, I made Parivaar Parichay for my brother in law's wedding. It was a in form of a book. Every page of the book is unique and represents an art form. The art forms included in this book were:
