This text contains over 70 decorative projects for small items of furniture and other home accessories. They feature traditional and modern techniques such as decoupage, papier mache and stencilling, which use readily available tools and safe, easy-to-use materials. The paint techniques described include sponging, ragging, spattering and stippling as well as more glamorous effects like gilding and craquelure.
