Less is more - even when it comes to decoration, it can sometimes be a little less and more discreet. These decorative picture frames were painted in natural colours and then covered with napkins and pressed flowers. A real eye-catcher for your home!
Natural decoration for the home:
1. paint the edges of the picture frames with your desired colours, prime the inside part with white. Allow to dry.
2. stick the napkins on the inside of the picture frames: cut individual motifs or use the whole napkin and remove the unprinted layers. Apply a layer of napkin varnish to the desired area, place the napkin and coat again with napkin varnish. Allow to dry.
3. Cut pieces of wire with a side cutter, bend them into shape and glue them to the napkin with super glue. In our decoration example, we have decorated some of the napkin motifs and the edges with wire.
4. For a 3D effect, glue pressed fern leaves onto the napkin with silicone glue.
5. want more 3D effects? Prime the embossing foil with white craft paint and let the paint dry. Cut out any motifs from the napkins and stick them onto the embossing foil with napkin varnish as described above. Cut all the motifs to size.
Then use embossing pens to press out some parts of the motif on the reverse side to highlight them.
6. Finally, stick the designed motifs onto the picture frame or the designed surface.
