Vivienne Garforth has compiled a book of twenty-five decoupage projects with a specifically Australian theme. Australian decoupage is exciting because of the many moods it encompasses - it can be light and fanciful with cartoon koalas and cheeky kookaburras, rich and colourful with photographic images of wildflowers, sedate and serious in sepia or pretty, almost Victorian, with painted birds and flowers, quaint old buildings and pastel seashells.
Objects transformed include an ordinary billycan, a modern kerosene lamp, garden pots, a jarrah letterbox, a tin tray and placemats, cards and boxes. Photographs, full instructions and diagrams accompany each project.
