Rose Wall Art Decopauge

Hello & Welcome,
There are many breathtaking napkin designs that can be used to inspire beautiful home décor items.  As most Dew Drops are transparent, they can easily be placed over nearly any background color for added shades of nuanced color.  To meet the requirements of the moodboard challenge (brighten up & shadow) I created my design on a light up canvas.  There is a set of mini twinkle lights that provide a a subtle glow and shadows. The hardest part of this project was knowing when to stop adding more Dew Drops.  If you would like to see the complete tutorial, please visit The Robin's Nest Blog HERE.

Beautiful Wreath Card

This is my first attempt with flocking.  The look it creates is remarkably life like. The only downside is it's a bit messy so containment is the key to success. Working in the lid of a box or a large tray will make clean up easier.  This makes it a simple process to return the little bits of flocking that didn't stick to the glue back into the jar so none is wasted.  Be sure to use a tacky drying glue like ScraPerfect's - Best Glue Ever rather than a standard wet glue.

Simple Sunflower Wall Art

Hello & Welcome,
Let me show you how easy it is to embellish a sunflower canvas.  I found this pretty yet plain canvas very cheaply at a dollar discount store.  The simplicity of nature is pefect for Autumn home decor.  I just knew I could improve it by adding some Dew Drops.  Super quick, super simple, and nearly like a paint by numbers kit.  Once you find a canvas design you love, you can't really go wrong!  The complete tutorial for this project can be found HERE on The Robin's Nest Blog.

Stunning Glitter Sunflower

Hey There,
I found this glittered wall hanging very cheaply at a dollar discount store. Although it was pretty, I knew I could improve it by adding some Dew Drops. As Dew Drops are transparent, they look even more amazing placed over a glittered surface.  The hardest part is knowing when to stop adding more Dew Drops!  The step by step directions can be found HERE.
