Decoupage is so easy we call it Painting with Paper. We offer it four ways, each using different materials with similar techniques:
- Decopatch for adults, teens and older children.
- Batik Paper decoupage
- Fabric decoupage
- Stained Glass Tissue for the young child
DECOUPAGE IN OUR STUDIO
Decopatch is perfect for the adult, teen or older child who will enjoy the careful process of tearing paper and gluing it piece by piece onto a bowl or picture frame or playful mache animal. The basic technique is easy, and we can show you tricks and techniques for special effects that will inspire you to new heights!
When you want something wildly different, decoupage with handmade Batik Papers. These papers are saturated with lush dyes, their bold designs created with a wax resist. We show you the best techniques for separating images and adhering to boxes, frames, and book covers.
Our Ribbon Bowl project uses rich, multicolored batik ribbons to create interesting patterns on bowls that can be used at home for holding barrettes or serving snacks.
For the young child we recommend our Stained Glass Tissue decoupage. Applied with a sponge brush and glue/glaze, this easier form of decoupage uses pieces and shapes of bright fade-resistant paper in ten different colors to create brilliant designs on boxes and clear bowls.
Decopatch makes everything beautiful!
Talk about makeovers! You should have seen my “before” picture I was this plain brown giraffe, and even being 5 feet tall did’¹t make me stand out. Then I discovered Decopatch at Artbeat. It was the biggest surprise! Using only paper and glue, the folks at Artbeat helped me transform into the fashionista I am today.
Come see me up close! I liked Artbeat so much I live there now.

Then find just the right bits of patterned papers to turn them into magical objects d'art. This project, which always has beautiful results, is best for those who love little details and don't mind sticky fingers.
These sturdy initials, 5 inches high, will tell a story a sunny picture you paint with acrylics, or a patchwork of patterned papers you brush on with a glue/glaze. The result: an illustrated monogram to hang on a wall or sit Mona shelf.
