What do we need to make such aworks of art from the old chair: • Wooden chair; • Acrylic primer; • Acrylic matt paint (white color); • For decoupage glue; • Love4Art rice paper "Russian pattern"; • Two-step craquel composition; • Gold powder; • Finishing varnish; • Sandpaper; • Brushes; • Foam Sponge; • Scissors So, get down to work. We rub the stool surfaces with sandpaper from the old varnish and dirt. If the layer of varnish is thick, then it is better to use a grinding machine. We wash the dust with a damp cloth. First, apply a universal acrylic primer of white color. While the soil dries, we tear or cutOur rice paper on the necessary fragments, and then you need to attach them to the chair, choosing the most successful composition. Here we need precisely torn edges, so it is better not to use scissors. We paint the chair with white acrylic paint in several layers, letting each layer dry properly. We apply fragments of rice paper tosurface of the seat and glue with adhesive for decoupage. Properly impregnate the paper with glue, smooth it with a wide flat brush, starting from the center to the edges. We let the glue dry. After that, we go through sandpaper where the edges of the paper go to the chair. We need to polish the paper so that the borders are not so visible. Next, we apply the first composition of the pair to create decorative cracks (craquelures). Let him dry, according to the instructions. After the first composition dries, a layersecond composition. During its drying, we see how the cracks form. By the way, their size depends on the thickness of the application of the second composition. We wait, while the second structure completely will dry up. As a rule, it takes about 2-3 hours without accelerating drying (without using a hair dryer). Now rub the resulting cracks with gold powder with a dry brush. Surplus powder shake brush. Instead of powder, you can use oil paint. In order to protect the surface fromand fix the powder, we apply several layers of finishing acrylic lacquer with a matte effect. Each layer is allowed to dry properly. For the greatest smoothness of the surface, it can be once again sanded after the first coat of varnish dries. We decorate the back with the help of usual twine or tapes. Our chair is ready! Now he is not only a functional piece of furniture in your home, but also a real work of art.
