Pentacle Raven Heart - Wood Box

I recently decoupaged another wood box. This is a hybrid mystical occult theme crossed with a romantic theme. I combined two of my previous wood box designs to create this one.

I had conducted an experiment on this box awhile ago, but I didn't like how it came out, so I put it aside. I revisited it recently, but without going into detail, the original decoupage method I used on it failed when I tried to clear coat it.

I was able to remove the layer that was on this, and applied a completely new design to the box, which is shown in the photograph. I applied two coats of clear coat. The ink faded a little, but I wanted a vintage, rustic look, so that worked well with my desired result.

This is my second entry this week for:

Tuesday's Treasures

Wonderful box - I love it. I've been thinking of doing some decoupage lately - I used to do a lot of it when it was very popular in the early 1970s - but haven't for some time. Thanks for the inspiration. I have a wooden tray that I want to decorate - now to find the right images.
