New Project

[evilshell.livejournal.com]

Hi all, just wanted to share my latest project. It was only my second collage/decopauge attempt, but I liked it a lot better than my first one! It is an IKEA mirror with a large wooden frame that I covered. The comics are 1970s erotic French comics that I picked up at a flea market for almost nothing.

I used wallpaper paste to adhere the images to the frame - and it made a *huge* difference from the decoupage medium I'd used on my first project (it was nearly identical to mod podge). I also used a spray varnish this time, instead of a liquid, so there are no brush marks anywhere and it gives a much more "natural" feel to it.
