Shut Up!! This was one of the best hours I've spent in a long time. So excited to do this technique. I love the finished you!

A far easier way to decoupage, is to paint on your glue and wait for it to dry. When it's completely dry, place your decoupage paper over the top, then place parchment paper on top. Use a small crafting iron or travel iron to iron the decoupage paper in place. A low heat setting will activate the glue and the paper will stick with no wrinkles and no bubbles. This eliminates the need for all this rubbing. Use a craft knife, not a palette knife to separate edges. Also, always iron creases out of the decoupage paper first. Try it!

When you were adding the dark wax to the left side door and the right unwaxed side was in the shot, it showed what an amazing effect it creates. This is gorgeous

My jaw just hit the floor. I never thought I could use napkins on big furniture. I am now totally glued to your tutorial. Wow!

[katharinecox]

Beautiful and now I can just give in to my urge to buy those beautiful napkins in gift shops etc. and not even have to pretend I'm getting them for a present for someone else. Wonderful lessons, Jonathan, and such a lovely piece.

When I was a kid we called the darker edging “antique-ing.” I have never seen a more beautiful piece of furniture in all my life. Scrolling through everyone’s thumbnails - this took my breath away. This is the project I want to do. Thank you.

I can’t believe you did this with napkins. It is so gorgeous 😮

I am not usually a fan of florals or pink, but this is stunning! I absolutely love this!

[neilchisholm]

A great tutorial. Learnt so much. Never having done this before I’m going to start small on a craft box or two to perfect the technique and then move on to my furniture I’ve been wanting to do. Thank you for so clearly explaining every step, not just how to do it, but why you’re doing it. That’s the indicator of a great teacher.

First time here, loved your artwork, you’ve created a masterpiece from an outdated piece of furniture. What impresses me the most was how kind and patient you are with your instructions and I really thank you for that. Seems as though no one has kindness in them anymore. ❤❤❤

Looks beautiful. Love how you gave it a loose look with painting around at the end. It made it look like you painted the entire floral arrangement.

I've subscribed because I just love learning and youve just completed a whole art class for me and finishing a stunning piece. I love that you explain everything so thoroughly. 🥰

Instead of tearing the napkins, you can use a paintbrush dipped in water..the paper will tear so much easier..beautiful piece of furniture..thanks for sharing!
