About this title

From Booklist:

Transforming an object with decoupage is one of the easiest methods of decoration, so if hand painting an antique bureau with bouquets of roses does not seem feasible, gluing on colorful photographic images of old roses should convey a similar stylistic effect. Macchiavelli's projects conjure up the Victorian era (when decoupage was the rage) as well as a 1950s ambience and the bolder, contemporary designs of today. From a child's drawing used to decorate a rubber rain boot to embellished chairs and tables, the ideas here are simple and accessible even for complete beginners. Alice Joyce
