Description :

Transform a recycled plastic container into a stylish decorative piece using decoupage and Mouldit clay for a unique trellis design. This project combines mixed media techniques to create a stunning, upcycled home decor item.

STEP 1 : Prepare the Container

Start by selecting a recycled plastic container for the DIY project, which will feature a decoupage design with a trellis pattern created using Mouldit.

STEP 2 : Base Coat Painting

Paint the entire container with a base coat of Fevicryl Acrylic Colour - White 27.
Allow it to dry completely before moving to the next step.

STEP 3 : Apply Decoupage Design

Take a floral design paper and cut out three arched windows, each measuring 4” x 5”.
Stick these floral paper windows onto the container at equal distances using Modge Podge.
Carefully smooth out any air bubbles or creases.
Apply two coats of Modge Podge over the paper to seal it and give it a glossy finish. Let it dry thoroughly.

STEP 4 : Create the Trellis Design

Mix Fevicryl Mouldit resin base and hardener to form a uniform dough.
Roll the dough into a slab and draw the trellis design onto it.
Shape the dough to create the trellis pattern and make additional coils to decorate the container lid.
Use Fabric Glue to attach the trellis design around the arched windows and to add the coil design on the lid.
Form a dome-shaped knob on top of the lid using Mouldit clay and glue.
Allow everything to dry completely.

STEP 5 : Paint the Final Design

Paint the container and trellis design with an antique look using Fevicryl Acrylic Colours - Black 02, Light Green 12, White 27, Teal Blue 68, and Pearl Metallic - Bronze 355.
Use dry brush strokes of Golden Yellow 09 and White 27 to add an off-white shade for depth.
Let the project dry completely before use.
