How to Turn Cardboard into a High-End Jewelry Box with Decoupage

Join me in this creative journey where I turn an ordinary cardboard Q-Tips box 📦 with a plastic lid ♻️ into a stunning piece of art. Utilizing the diverse decoupage techniques alongside a blend of hand painting 🖌️and sculpting with cold porcelain clay, I’ve crafted a jewelry box that’s nothing short of fabulous🌹. #decoupage #cardboardcraft TIMECODES 0:00 – Introduction 0:13 – Reinforcement of the Box & Lid 1:11 – Decoration of the Box 3:06 – Decoration of the Lid 4:08 – Sculpting the Knob 4:55 – Final Presentation If you’ve enjoyed my content, please consider subscribing to my channel, hitting the like button👍, and sharing for more!💖 Visit my YouTube channel here: @FavorkaDeko Discover more of my art on my website: TIPS✨ • Degrease the plastic lid with alcohol prior to painting. • Use mini-vices to ensure intermediate fixation of the cardboard to the workpiece during the curing of the adhesive. • Use foil or an A4 sleeve to assist in gluing the rice paper. • To secure each painting layer, apply acrylic varnish. • Dilute acrylic varnish: mix together 90% varnish and 10% water. • Allow each layer of paint or varnish to dry naturally, without using a dryer. • Apply a thin layer of wax to enhance the metal effect. • The metal feet can be glued using craft adhesive gel.
