Volumetric decoupage

Volume decoupage is a technique for creating realistic 3D images. This is a whole art associated with ordinary decoupage only in that the basis for creating pictures are ready-made printed on paper plots and motifs. However, despite the apparent complexity, voluminous decoupage is available even for beginners - you only need the desire, patience and perseverance.

The essence of the technique of volumetric decoupage is to glue the pattern parts onto the substrate layer by layer using a special glue. To make the image of three-dimensionality serve not only handy materials in the form of paper napkins, but also a special silicone adhesive and paste - a soft polymer substance, which after drying resembles porcelain. The subject of decoupage can be anything - an old casket, a plaque, a vase, a bottle. Great popularity is enjoyed by the large-scale decoupage in the Terra technique, which allows you to use what in ordinary situations seems to be trash in usual situations: buttons, pieces of ribbons and ribbons, fragments of glass and plastic. In this case, the elements are not glued, but are introduced into the base solution, which allows them to fit into the composition most organically.

You can still endlessly spread about the theory and nuances of performance, but the best way to demonstrate the art of voluminous decoupage is by the example of a master class.

Volume dekupazh bottles with pasta - a master class

To create a decorative bottle in a rustic style, we will need:

Progress:

  1. We turn the napkin, turn it upside down and cover it with a piece of transparent film.
  2. Take a little rough paste, leave for a while in the air - it must dry.
  3. Over the film spread the paste on the picture, aligning the contour.
  4. The film along with the paste carefully put to the bottle, press and remove the film.
  5. On the bottle there is such a cock here. Slightly smooth the edges with your fingers.
  6. After the paste has dried, we glue a napkin onto it. Similarly, on the other side of the bottle make the second cock.
  7. After the glue dries, take a thin paste and apply it to the surface of the bottle, including the edges of the napkin.
  8. Immediately, while the mass is not dried, we press into it natural materials - dried flowers, cereals, spikelets.
  9. In addition, we decorate with oat flakes.
  10. After the paste has dried, begin to color. In white acrylic, add a drop of ocher and brown.
  11. Especially carefully we paint the grass and wrinkles.
  12. After the paint dries, you need to apply gold acrylic on top.
  13. For the aging of some areas we apply a bitumen varnish to them with a sponge.
  14. Excess varnish and paint is removed with white spirit.
  15. We let it dry for a day and cover the whole bottle with varnish. Bottle, decorated in the technique of volumetric decoupage is ready.
