DECOUPAGE. SECOND LOOK.

First time I've heard of decoupage was about 18 years ago. And my reaction was:"What? Cutting pictures and gluing them on the furniture? I am sorry, but I did it when I was five and was punished for this." Later I saw some pictures of it and left them unnoticed, some even made me think "ugly!". But then something happened and I wanted to learn how to do it. OMG! If you go a little bit dipper then bottles and cutting board - it is a whole new world.

Give it a second look and you may find a new hobby!

As I said before, I have million hobbies, some of them I have from my childhood (like ceramic), some - pretty fresh and new (like bread making, sausages making and decoupage). 

As a first instruction I want to share one of my first decoupage project. If you want to repeat it just remember, the important thing is following the technique (I thank Hiram Manning for his book Manning on Decoupage), careful cutting and gluing and... the sky is a limit - let your imagination go wild! I will learn how to take "step-by-step" pictures.
