Découpage is the art of decorating an object by gluing colored paper cutouts onto it in combination with special paint effects, gold leaf and other decorative elements. The word is derived from the French verb découper, which means `to cut out`.
Commonly, an object like a small box or an item of furniture is covered by cutouts from magazines, newspapers, wrapping paper and even greeting cards. Découpage lets you personalize an object to suit your style of decor and fashion.
