Paper Art: Decoupage Gift Boxes with Cherie
Event description
Come along and transform brown craft boxes (or any box) into a beautiful gift box using Decoupage. Decoupage was a chic French trend popular in Victorian times which then made a glorious comeback in the 1990s. This class will revive this timeless but forgotten craft just in time for Easter. Using the Decoupage technique of layering and lacquering, we will create personalised gift boxes to suit any occasion.
A wide variety of prints, wrapping paper, bling and other embellishments will be provided for you to really make your box a one-of-kind. Perfect for presenting handmade soaps, perfumes, essential oils, chocolates, jewellery, or Easter treats. This is a lovely way to add a personal touch to your gift giving, while having fun in the process.
All materials provided, just come and have fun!
