How to Decoupage a Lampshade — Beach-Inspired Makeover in Croatia

I decoupage a lampshade with paper napkins on a windy beach in Istria, Croatia — and show you how to blend two napkin designs into one completely unique pattern. While my family swims in the sea, I attempt a windy decoupage project: separating napkin plies, using a water pen to cut designs, and blending florals with a butterfly motif so the seams disappear. No wrinkles, no mess — just two napkins and about two hours. 🌿 What you'll see in this video: Why using a whole napkin isn't always the best idea How to separate napkin plies for a smooth decoupage finish Using a water pen for quick, clean cutting Blending two napkin designs into one seamless pattern Materials used: White lampshade 2 paper napkins White craft glue, thinned with water Water pen (for cutting designs) Protective top coat If you enjoyed this, let me know in the comments — and if you try this on your own lampshade, tell me how it went! #decoupage #diyhomedecor #napkindecoupage
