How Do I Decorate Letters And Numbers With Decoupage?

Decoupage is a popular papercraft and can be used to personalise a variety of items, this does not only apply to our wooden letters and numbers, but also some of the items in your home.

To start with decoupage, you will need to cut out some pictures from your favourite source, this could include a magazine, greeting card, books, wallpaper, and even wrapping paper. Once you have your imagines, make sure that the surface of the wooden letter is clear. Then, arrange the pictures on the letter until you are happy with their position. Once you have found the ideal position, glue the pictures in their place and remove any wrinkles with a damp sponge.

When you are finished with the gluing process, always make sure you apply a layer of varnish to the final result, this will protect your artwork for years to come. In most cases, several layers of varnish are required.

How Do I Paint Wooden Letters And Numbers?

One of the most straightforward methods to decorate our wooden letters and numbers is through painting. Of course, since wood is a very particular material, you will need to obtain the right paint for the job. Fortunately, this can also be found at Spotlight.

Before you start painting one of the letters or numbers from our catalogue, always remember to apply a primer to the surface. Primer will form a barrier between the wood and the paint, ensuring it adheres correctly and that the colour remains unaffected.

How Do I Embellish Wooden Letters And Numbers With Sequins?

Another original way to decorate the wooden letters and numbers in our range is with a nice selection of sequins. First, select your favourite sequins, this can be gold, silver, or a bolder colour. Then, apply some regular craft glue to get started.

Adding sequins to wooden letters can be very detailed work. However, the method we find the fastest is covering the entire letter surface with craft glue. Then, apply the sequins in the method you prefer.

If you do not have a lot of time for this project, you can always obtain sequins that are slightly larger. Larger sequins cover more of the surface, so you do not have to mess around with little sequins for a long period of time.

How Do I Embellish Wooden Letters And Numbers With Figurines?

One of the most original ways to decorate our wooden letters and numbers is with figurines. Before you can get started, select some figurines to match the theme you are working with. For example, if you are thinking about a whimsical theme, you could choose some fairy figurines.

Before you add the figurines to the letters and numbers, think about the colour scheme you are working with. If you have a specific colours scheme in mind and your figurines do not match, then you can always repaint them before adding them to the letters. Evidently, it is also a good idea to paint the letters and numbers first before you add the figurines. Other than that, you have a lot of freedom. You can place the figurines in your preferred position. You can even add additional embellishments to make the design more special, this goes from some extra sparkles to LED lights.
