Primary TechniqueGeneral Crafts
Materials List

small craft wood rounds

matte decoupage glue like Mod Podge

white acrylic craft paint

1-inch flat paintbrush
-
decorative patterned holiday napkins

Instructions
-
First, paint one side of the wood round with white acrylic paint. You can paint all the way to the wood slice edge, but I prefer to stop painting at the edge of the ring made by the bark. Let the white paint dry completely.
-
Peel apart the layers of the decorative napkin, and discard the bottom, unpatterned layer. Cut a small square of napkin, just a bit larger than the wood round.
