Craft Book: Americana Paper-Ware - Patterns and Tole Designs
1975 Craft Course Publishers
24 Pages

This book will show you how to construct your own antique replicas from paperboard, and how to decorate them with acrylic paints. If you are a decorative painter, you will want to have a copy for the patterns and color studies alone!

Step-by-step instructions for each project include assembly drawings to aid you with the construction of the paperboard models. The assembly drawings detail the exact dimensions of the model parts to insure a perfect fit.

Painting the models can be approached with complete confidence even if you haven't painted much. Full-size line patterns from which to trace the designs, and color studies to copy as you paint, make decorating the models a cinch. Most of the painting is done on pieces of paper that are later glued into place - thus making decorating virtually "foolproof."

Additionally, the book has instructions for simulating the worn look so typical of antique tin and copper finishes.

Contents:
  • General Instructions
