The same situation is with decoupage. Decoupage is a design and decoration technique that has its own nuances and features. That is why we advise you to start “training on cats”, or rather on bottles or cans, and only then, having some practical experience, move on to decoupage vases.

Every housewife dreams of having an unusual and suitable thing for her interior. It is especially nice when this thing is made by hand. stained glass painting glass has always fascinated me. It turns out that decorating a vase with your own hands at home is possible. The main thing is to determine the degree of complexity of the work performed and correlate it with your capabilities. If decorating vases is new to you, then I advise you to start with simple work. Let's start with a simple technique - applying geometric patterns.

geometric patterns

For this job you will need:

• acrylic or stained glass paint for glass surfaces. You can also use spray paint;
• brush (we use synthetic for acrylic paints, natural for stained glass);
• scotch;
• alcohol;
• cotton wool

Drawing technique:

1. Degrease the glass surface with alcohol or any degreaser;
2. We glue the vase with strips of adhesive tape creating a pattern with it;
3. We paint over the parts without adhesive tape, going into it. This is necessary so that the edges of the pattern are neat.
4. We are waiting for the paint to dry. At this time, it is better to remove the vase to avoid accidental touches and smearing of paint. Each paint dries differently, read the instructions on the paint package.

A wide variety of patterns can be achieved with this technique, from parallel lines to various intersections. You can also cut various geometric figures and stick them on the surface of the object being decorated. Do not apply a thick layer of acrylic and stained glass paint to the surface, as this may cause smudges.

For the first work, I do not advise you to choose rounded shapes, it is more difficult to work with them. Faceted vases are better. We work with one face, wait for it to dry completely and move on to the next. The easiest will be to work with spray paint. It is applied in a uniform layer, the spray-paint dries very quickly. Concerning stained glass paints drying time can be significantly reduced. To do this, just put the painted vase in the oven for 15 minutes at a temperature of 150 degrees.

This technique came to us from antiquity. hallmark mural pique is the size of the dots, the interval between them, the combination and color scheme.

Drawing technique:

• Degrease the glass surface with alcohol.
• We apply the contour with a dotted touch.

If you are a beginner artist, you can draw a sketch of your drawing on a piece of paper and attach it from the inside.

You can also use ready-made sketches by downloading your favorite picture from the Internet. Before drawing the outline on the vase, test it on a piece of paper. This is done in order to feel its density. Only then proceed to painting on a vase.

If you go beyond the line, you can quickly fix the defect until the contour is dry. Wipe off with alcohol and continue to work. Consider the transparency of the vase, place the pattern on one side or at different levels.

This is necessary so that the image does not overlap. Try to maintain the same interval between the points.

I used 2 types of fills in my work: Marabu and Decola. They on different basis and behave differently at work. Decola paint was in a water-based tube. And Marabu is alcohol-based in a jar and needs to be applied with a brush. It is more liquid and can be mixed to get various shades. Decola paint cannot be mixed, so it is more difficult to perform shades and transitions in one contour with this material. Color transitions can be done by breaking one path into smaller ones.

Do not leave gaps in the contours when painting and make sure that the contours are closed. This is done so that the paint does not leak out. I would advise you to start with faceted vases, as they are the easiest to work with. If you nevertheless set to work with a rounded vase, then try to apply the fill in a thin layer to avoid paint leakage.

Vase decor with fabric and ribbons

Decoupage

The word decoupage from French literally translates as "cutting". In other words, the essence of decoupage is the application. In my opinion, this technique is quite simple and does not require special skills.

But you need to be patient and scrupulous. To perform decoupage work, you must adhere to the following tips.

You can find other uses for newspaper tubes. Glue the cardboard to the bottom, and then wrap the base around the base with bundles, forming the body of the vase.
