Tear out the desired design from your paper napkin or cut your motif exactly out and remove the bottom layers. 3. Dot a couple of drops of glue on to the item to be decorated and place the napkin on the item and using a soft paint brush, paint applique glue over the napkin. Start from the center and work your way out to the outer edges. Try to work smooth and avoid ripping the napkin. 4. Let the napkin dry and repeat if necessary on the other side of the item. More pieces may be required, depending on what you are decorating. 5. Once all the napkin pieces are dry, use a paint similar to that of the napkin, and sponge the paint onto the empty spaces in between the napkins.   Enter your search terms Submit search form Web www.craftideas.info
