Product Information

A great way to use your old copies of Prima! Magazines and catalogues are ideal for cutting out letters and words if you’re keen to incorporate messages into your project. Cut or tear the Decopatch paper to the required size. Many decopatchers prefer to tear their papers as torn edges blend in better.

Smooth out any wrinkles and wipe away any excess glue with a barely damp sponge as you glue each piece. The best way is to apply your glue on the reverse side, then lay it flat in position before you use the sponge. Keep going in the same way until your project is complete and leave it to dry. 5. Varnish the pictures Remember that darker colours can show through lighter coloured papers, so if you plan ahead you can put the lighter coloured areas of paper on first. In the photo the pink accent for the ears was applied first.Complete the item with any finishing touches such as patchliner (like icing on a cake it gives areas of 3D colour), tresors (mini jewels), high gloss varnish etc. This is one of the most popular types of paper and it’s a brilliant way to be more sustainable with your crafts; rather than throwing away the gift wrap on presents you receive, keep and re-use them. Going shopping for wrapping paper is also fun. Looking to brighten up your festivities? We have a range of thematic objects too, including Easter rabbits and Christmas reindeer. Cover an area with PVA Glue or Decoptach Glue and place your torn up pieces of paper on top. Be generous with the glue, as it will dry clear so you don’t have to worry if it looks messy at the beginning.

Step 2 If the item is not just a decorative item but will be used on a regular basis then add a coat of professional varnish (Aqua Pro). Next, sand all wooden areas of the table using medium-grade sandpaper, followed by fine grade sandpaper to give a smoother finish.
