The thought of s'mores over a summer campfire conjures up memories of fun times and cozy company. Why not give this classic treat a first-class treatment?

I love the smoldering look of the romantic papers used in this project and you won't even need a match to get the charred effect! The author summed up the spirit of this project and others in the book when she said, "Very ordinary projects are rejuvenated with the simple use of paper, paste and paint."

This project comes from the book Fresh Ideas in Découpage by Colette George. Inside you'll find:

• Techniques for layering with paint, wax, plaster, stain and ink

• Tips for creating a vintage feel with ribbons and pictures

• Ways to age paper and successfully work it into a background

• Over 25 stepped-out projects to add beauty to your surroundings
