Hola amigos🌼🏵️
Hello friends🏵️🌼
I am very happy to participate in this contest, since a few days ago I'm watching the publications of the community and I love how everyone makes the same art with a different technique, 🧡each publication made me excited and a little desperate because it took me several days to make my decoupage.
After a little more research I decided to make a decoupage on a phone box where I keep my makeup brushes, it took me longer than expected just trying or thinking about how to do things, I'm a pretty perfectionist person and that's why I make a lot of effort or just take the necessary time to do my crafts.✨💛
I wanted to make something similar to the reference images that are in the contest publication, because I love delicate and aesthetic things; I also wanted it to look very feminine and elegant.🏵️
Simplemente puedo decir que me encantan las cosas lindas.✨🏵️
I can simply say that I love pretty things.✨💛

Let's start💛
1- First I started by cutting the roses,🌹✂️ it took me a very long time doing this process because the fabric is chifón which is quite light. ✂️ I then cut many more flowers because I didn't know I would use so many.
2- With the help of a blade I removed the design from the box; I tore a little to lift the paper and then pulled it little by little.📦
3- I painted the box white although you can't really tell the difference,😅 because you could see the cardboard in some parts where I tore the paper off the box.
4- I made a heart on a piece of paper ❤️ and then marked it on the box. I used a blade to cut out the heart with lots and lots of patience to make it as symmetrical as possible.📏
5- In a small tray I mixed glue with a little water, 💧 I took the flower I had cut out and soaked it in the mixture. And little by little I started to glue the flowers and being aware that no air bubbles appeared while drying.
7- I used the exact measurements of the box 📏 to cut out the fabric that I put inside. I used the same glue mixture and little by little I started to glue it, it was a little complicated because the fabric was moving but in the end I made it.😅
8- I used the heart I cut out of the box as a pattern to make two more for the outside and inside of the box a little bigger. ✂️ I cut the hearts on the inside so that they would be hollow and a little piece of plastic from a bag that is not very distinguishable in the photo. Then I glued it on.✨
Resultado final🏵️💛✨
Final result🏵️💛✨
This is one of the projects to which I have dedicated a lot of time and attention. I was watching out for air bubbles and making sure that the fabric was glued correctly in the box.
I am very happy with the result, my makeup brushes now have a nice place to be stored, I really like that from a distance it looks like the roses in the box were painted by hand. I didn't need complex or expensive materials to make this craft, you can make very nice things with a lot of love.💛
