Congratulations to our customer Kari S. in upstate New York. Her talent for handcrafted makeovers has led to the opening of a new retail space location. We send our congratulations and are super excited for her store launch!  Good luck Kari!  Here are some photos of her beautiful upcycled home decor, using papers purchased here in our store. We especially love the Garden Bunny which made quite a splash on Kari's Facebook page.

Our customer Donna made a shelf full of stunning Christmas jars. Who doesn't love sledding, ice skating, angels, red trucks and Gnomes! These were made with decoupage napkins, whimsical bows and embellishments. 

Our customer Dorothy made this beautiful dispenser pump glass jar using decoupage. She bought glass jars from a discount store and painted them using white Krylon spray paint. She adhered the cut-out napkin designs with glitter mod podge. The pump lid was purchased online. 

She gives this helpful hint about using napkins: Be sure to separate the back napkin layers from the top layer and then use only the top-most layer on your project. You can use a small piece of scotch tape on the corner of the back layer which helps to lift it off and separate it.

Janet loves to decoupage with napkins. Her favorite theme is hydrangea and her entire downstairs is full of hydrangea decor. Below are photos of her lovely decoupage flower pots, candle, houses, phone stand and pumpkins. The shingled roof and sides of the houses are made using a Cricut machine. For the hydrangea candle, the napkin is simply melted into the wax with a heat gun.

This beautiful butterfly vase was made by a customer, using one of our Butterfly napkins. The purple stripes on the pedestal make it very fun and whimsical.

I used a Chalk Couture tree and decoupaged your napkin in them. Then added acrylic paints and clay feathers.  Hope you like it❤️  -Lisa

I just finished a project using your new wet transfer papers (Dress my Craft) as well as the writings stamp I purchased from you. It was my first time using this type of transfer, and I love it. I just put in a new order to try the Rub on Transfer Decals from ReDesign with Prima too.

Here is a dimensional decoupage project I made live (on Facebook) using your nest napkin and some clay. I use clay to build up areas and then placed a cutting of that napkin image over the clay. I also added twine under the pussy willow branches to add dimension.

I just did this jar with your napkins! I use Modpodge and Decoart glass paint.

I made this simple shelf sitter with the Snowflakes in Blue rice paper.  The substrate is a 4 x 4 chunky canvas.  I used Mod Podge to adhere the rice paper to the canvas.  I added embellishments with snowflake buttons. Sequins, stamped words and a quick fabric rolled rosette.
