Product Description

Product Description
The motifs in this series all combine delightful traditional patterns with distinctive colour and are based on authentic historical and regional sources. The concept behind the designs is a simple trace-down approach - motifs are transferred from the printed paper patterns onto any painted surface by means of re-usable transfer paper, then coloured in following step-by-step instructions, covering everything from colour mixing to painting in traced patterns. Each booklet contains, as well as a central motif, related motifs for borders, corner pieces and small details, creating an array of decorative possibilities. Colour photographs illustrate the wide range of decorative objects, from kitchen cupboards to soap boxes, on which the motifs can be used. The "Simply French" patterns are based on the spring-like colours and designs of old Breton pottery. They include a rich floral centrepiece in a slightly naive style, counterpointed by delicate posies, sprays and corner pieces, allowing painters to add a splash of distinctive French blue and yellow to anything from a towel rail to an armoire.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to follow with great results, 4 Sep 2006
By Katie Black (Hampshire, UK) - See all my reviews
This book enabled me to transform some of my tired furniture and bring them back to life with a decorative French look. The patterns were really useful as my painting style isn't normally very good! I was impressed with my results and all my friends have commented on the makeover (one even thought I had bought it from a expensive boutique shop!).
