Spread Happiness With Eeyore

Very busy day yesterday sorry I didn't get to post a pattern that. I promised but life happens I guess. So I wanted to make this post special. That's when I had a great Idea. Why not give the people what they have been asking about?

  Eeyore Is back for a limited time. I'm getting tired of so many people asking me about this pattern via e-mail. So I thought "I'm uploading it again". It's going to be up for about a week. So get it while you can!

A Very Simple Decoupage Tutorial

What You'll Need(Now In Color : 0):

-Something to decoupage on:  Old shoe-boxes can be a great place to start (and are free so there's nothing lost if you screw it up) but pretty much anything can be decoupaged as I'm sure you've seen around here. (Wooden items like tables or cigar boxes, plastics like suitcases, metals like the ever popular Altoid tin, glass vases and such - if it holds still it can be decoupaged.) For this I used a small chocolates box.

-Something to decoupage onto your object: This can be pictures from magazines, pretty paper napkins, stamps, some fabrics, comic books, old sewing patterns, etc. It's generally best to stick with something in the fiber family (papers and fabrics) and be fairly thin because you want your glue to get a really good hold. For this I used images of print fabrics from catalogs and magazines.

-Decoupage medium: You can use Mod Podge (available in matte or shiny finishes), other commercial products or just plain white school glue watered down (equal parts glue and water), which is what I like to use.

-Brush for the medium

-Scissors: To trim up your images...  I recommend using scissors that you don't mind getting a bit messy since you're dealing with glue.
-OPTIONAL Brush for paint & paint: I like to paint my object before I start just in case I don't completely cover the surface with my images or in case they are transparent. I used white acrylic craft paint.
