'Venetian Stucco" Decoupage / Decupaj " Stucco Venetiano"

I like old handcrafts because they are telling story; they are a statement of bygone eras and a piece of their creators soul. This is a simple wine bottle but ,being inspired by the pattern of the decoupage paper, I got the idea to give it a vintage noble look like this faux Venetian Stucco .
I did the same way with the two little boxes that you are seeing in the images.

Imi plac lucruile vechi facute de mana pentru ca spun o poveste; sunt o marturie a vremurilor apuse si o parte din sufletul celui ce le-au creat. Aceasta este o sticla simpla de vin, dar fiind inspirata de modelul hartiei decoupage, mi-a venit ideea sa ii dau o infatisare nobila si veche, precum acest aspect fals de Stucco Venetiano.

La fel am procedat si cu cele doua cutiute pe care le vedeti in imagini.

I've almost forgot I received an award from Mihaela on her blog

Thanks for your recognition and your friendship Mihaela!

Decoupage Vintage Bottle / Sticla Vintage Decoupage

Or shall I say flower vase... In any case this home decoration was beeing very admired at the Handmade Fair that I attended this week-end. I have been asked for several times if it is handpainted.




In any case , it looked very well on the table sitting beside two candle holders which have been decorated in the same manner, by me, of course.



So, I sold it, and I was feeling obliged to make another one similar to this, not like this.


A change of registry; I hope that bodes well.
