Watch our free video on our website or subscribe to our YouTube channel @dooneydaughters
In this free How To video, we show you how to decoupage a pot with a napkin using the wraparound technique. This is one of two techniques we'll be teaching.
Decoupaging pots is a fun way to get creative! These make fantastic gifts, or use them in your home for pot plants or as storage for some bright colour.
In this video we'll show you the first of two techniques that we use when decoupaging. This one can be applied to small pots or flat objects like coasters or placemats.
Tools recommended in this video:
- A small terracotta pot
- Beluga Chalk Paint
- Lacquer - we used Matte but any sheen works well
- A small flat brush
- Sandpaper - 180 or 240-grit both work well
- Can opener
- Olive Soap
Tips for decoupaging with the wraparound technique:
- Choose a small pot that can be fully wrapped in your napkin.
- Start with a white base so your napkin colours will pop.
- We prefer using a white background so that it blends into your painted background.
- Seal with two topcoats for a durable finish.
- Wash your brush with warm water and a gentle soap, we recommend using olive soap.
