Applying paper imagery onto various objects has long been used in the decorative arts to make unique and lovely home accessories. Participants will learn cutting, pasting, and placement techniques and the importance of image selection while découpaging a glass cylinder for a lamp base or glass plates for a beautiful table. Choose from provided paper with patterns of flowers and shells or bring favorites from home. Wrapping paper, pages from books, or laser printouts can all be découpaged. Students complete their work with a background color of their choice.

All materials included. Maximum class size: 8

VIRGINIA MEAD teaches découpage at the Handicraft Club in Providence, Rhode Island. She enjoys the creative arts as a painter, needlepointer, knitter, and seamstress and has a Master Seamstress Certificate from the University of Rhode Island Extension.
