| How
do you get such a "painted on" look to your product?
First of all I say, “thank you” to anyone that asks that question because, to me, that is a huge compliment. Although my catalog pictures don’t reflect how smooth my surfaces are, they do look and feel like the designs were painted on. That is what a good decoupaged item is.. the finished quality looks like someone painted it on. The layers of sanding and finishing gives that finished appearance. Can I put these products in my dishwasher? NO! A light dusting or hand wash is all that is necessary. These will last a lifetime if you don’t submerge them in water. Can I drink out of the stemmed glasses? Believe me when I say that many people do but that is not my intent. They are made to hold candles and will not hold up to repeated washings. But you decide. Can I use votive candles instead of tea light candles? You may use votive candles, but I think the tea lights work the best. Tea lights are short allowing for the whole design to glow with the flicker of the short flame. Will the flame ruin the design over time? No, that is the beauty of my products. They will last forever; all you need to do is replace the tea light candles. The glass will get hot, just as any candle holder will, but the design will not get damaged. If I have a napkin I like, can I send it to you and have you decoupage it on an item? Yes, you may place a custom order at any time. Please contact us and we will gladly use your napkin designs. In your gallery, you have pictures of a lot of items not in your catalog. If I want you to decoupage on another item, will you? Yes, I will accept custom requests. I have been in business for a long time and my product line is always changing, and, I love working on special projects, so please feel free to contact me with your request. |
