Contemporary decoupage works are made with family photographs, magazine clippings, handmade papers, or any other image that strikes the artist's fancy. Decoupage is a great way to get your cherished memories out of the scrapbook and on display, using them to make over flea-market finds and create one-of-a-kind furniture and accessories for your home. After a brief history of the art and a review of the fundamental techniques of modern decoupage, author Durwin Rice offers complete instructions for more than 18 unique projects - both simple and more challenging - from a delicate vase to a dining room table. You can also transform entire rooms by decoupaging doorways, mantels and even ceilings.
