Decoupage Mdf Jewellery Box

Hey there! Finally I tried my hand at another big decoupage project. I bought this six compartment mdf box from Craftslane. I wanted to make a jewellery box for myself so I wasn't afraid to experiment with this one. The pink according to me is a bit darker than I wanted it to be. But I guess it doesn't look that bad!! :)

 

 

 

I coated the box with white wood primer, and then painted with pink acrylic paint. Then I pasted the decoupage hydrangea tissue paper design all over the box. I then applied a generous coat of mod modge over it. To embellish it, I dug out these pretty flowers from Itsy Bitsy that I had been hoarding since a long time. The butterfly chipboard embellishment is also from Itsy Bitsy.

 

I created a cluster at the left top corner with a metal fairy charm and loads of pearls.

  

I also liberally stuck two lines of pearl and rhinestone border on all sides of the box.

 

And here it is, filled with all my junk jewellery :) It is also apt for gifting on festivals. You can fill it up with dry fruits or other gifts.

Decoupage Mug

Hi. This is another DIY decoupage project that I made for my craft desk.

 

 

 I had this porcelain mug from Radio Mirchi with me for many years and I was kind of bored with it now. I decided to give it a fresh look with decoupage. The base coat is peach acrylic color. Then I glued the decoupage design with mod podge over the mug. Once dry, I applied a coat of mod podge over the entire design.

 

DIY Coasters 2 - Decoupage

Hi. This is the second coasters' set that I made for my mom. Unlike the one I made for my home (left in image I), this one is bright and colourful. I chose DCWV pattern papers with fruits so that it matches mom's dining room decor. 

DIY Decoupage Tissue Box 2

Hey there. This is another mdf tissue box that I altered. I first applied a coat of primer on it and then painted with peach acrylic color. I used decoupage tissues to cover the box. Then I embellished it using a mix of flowers, pearls and other embellishments. I also used a mdf sentiment cut-out on the box.

I extended the tissue paper design to the sides of the box. At the bottom edge I applied lace and self adhering peals.

DIY Coasters 1 - Decoupage

Hi All. I have been MIA since quite some time now. The reason is that I am blessed with a baby boy on 10th July. I am off crafting for a few months now, but I thought I will share some of the projects I made before delivery.

I made this decoupage coaster set for my home. My husband wanted something different and apt for the coffee table. The pattern paper used here is from Prima - Engraver paper pad which I had won at a challenge at BGC.  I distressed the edges using Distress inks. After a few days I coated it with mod podge.

DIY Decoupage Tissue Box1

Hi all.... I have been bitten by the decoupage bug and I am trying my hands at various articles. Today I am sharing a tissue box that I made for my dad's car. 

The mdf tissue box is from Craftslane.  I first applied a coat of primer on it and then painted with peach acrylic color. I used decoupage tissues sent to me by Maninder of Rainbow Craftykari blog. Then I embellished it using a mix of flowers, pearls and metal heart embellishment. For the sides, I have cut out a large oval doily and pasted on the upper part of the box. And for the lower part, I have used Ms Fence punch, and punched out on pattern paper.
