INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
Let dry completely between painting steps.
- Removing the backing from the frame.
- Place the Metallic Type Decou-Page Paper face down on the table, then place the frame face down on top of the paper. Use a pencil to trace around the frame, inside and out.
- Use scissors to cut the paper out along the trace lines, so that it fits the frame.
- Use a #10 flat brush and Lamp Black to paint the edges of the frame, inside and out. Rinse the brush and let frame dry completely.
- Use a #10 flat brush to apply a coat of Matte Decou-Page over the entire front of the frame. Quickly dampen the paper and immediately place it evenly on the frame. Brush more Decou-Page on top of the paper, starting from the center and working out to the edges to be sure to remove any air bubbles.
- Once completely dry, add the photo of your choice and replace the backing on the frame.
