Decoupage Advice?

[tasty.livejournal.com]

So I want to try decoupage, but I don't know where to start or even what to use. Actually, I don't even know what I want to decoupage. I just know that it sounds like it would be a lot of fun and that the end result, if I tried really really hard, could look awesome.

So I come to you girlies for advice. Have you even done this? If so, what did you do? What did it end up looking like? What materials did you use? How long did it take to complete?

Thank you very much! ♥.
