Welcome back Sparkle Chicks. Let’s take those old teapots and make something new. (No, real silver was used or harmed in this project) Grab your supplies and let’s get started.

This project was done over Live on Facebook, watch the replay HERE.

YOU’LL NEED:

  • Old Tea Pot (Thrift store, your attic etc.)
  • Slick Stick (Dixie Belle)
  • Mod Podge
  • White Chalk Style Paint
  • Hot Glue (Get it HERE) & Hot Glue Gun
  • Liquid Gold Leif
  • Decoupage Queen Rice Paper
  • Bher Wax Dark and Clear
  • Bling from Hobby Lobby
  • Dazzled Bling (Get yours HERE)
  • Paint Brush or sponge brush for Mod Podge
  • Brush for wax
  • Cloth for wax
  • Heat Gun (Get it HERE) optional
  • E6000 if needed
  • Water Pen

Let’s begin

Start by covering the whole tea pot in Slick Stick by Dixie Belle, then dry. Use a hair dryer or your heat gun to speed up the process.

setting the base

Secondly, you will take your White Chalk Style paint and paint your tea pot ion two coats, drying in between.

**For Decoupage you want a bright white base to get the full effect of the papers.

Decoupage time

For this next step I used scrap decoupage rice papers I had from Decoupage Queen.

Start by sizing up your decoupage paper and trimming the excess with your water pen then tearing away. By doing this it give a more natural feel verses a hard trimmed edge.

Begin the process of decoupaging your rice paper onto the teapot using Mod Podge. Next work your way slowly around the pot with your brush, Mod Podge and paper. Finally do a sealing coat over top of your rice paper then dry with your heat gun.

Wax on wax off

Start by mixing some dark and clear wax then apply it onto your teapot. I only applied to the painted parts of the tea pot. Afterwards wipe away the excess with a clean cloth.

Bling it up

Start this section by adding bling where you feel it would suite best. Next glue down with your hot glue gun, I used a beaded trim, and a bling trim.

an extra touch

This next step I took some liquid Gold Leif and added it to the raised parts of my teapot. Following that I also wiped it around the hard edges of my tea pot with my fingers.

Thank you for spending a little of your time with me, as always I would love to see your take on this fun project. Don’t forget to tag me in your designs!

Your sparkly friend;
