Decoupage (from a French word decouper, meaning 'to cut out') is the technique of decorating objects with purpose-made motifs cut out from paper serviettes. These paper cutouts are first arranged into a pattern and then glued on to a previously painted or suitably prepared surface such as wood, metal, glass, plastic or ceramics. To start with, the surface of the object is covered with multiple coats of lacquer so that the motif that has been stuck on to it blends smoothly in with the rest and is then impalpable to the touch. The motif then looks as if it were painted on.
