A favorite print or fabric, or any type of paper design, can be decoupaged onto a floorcloth. Make that design the eye-catching centerpiece, then stencil a complimentary border around it. With the patterns provided, decorative painting is a breeze--one project boasts a festive holly bough; another calls to mind a country garden with sunflowers in full bloom. Others will have you block-printing on a marbleized pattern that makes the images really stand out or stamping a medley of fruit directly on top of inlaid flooring. Create different looks and styles--they'll look great wherever you choose to display them.
