The artwork is drawn from the 19th-century book \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Bird\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e by Jules Michelet, featuring birds, nests, florals, and pastoral vignettes in a classic toile-inspired layout—full of charming details that you just have to see up close to appreciate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRendered in a three-color palette of sepia black, indigo, and soft green—reminiscent of vintage china—it’s perfect for creating your own faux china-style finishes. The set includes frames, wreaths, and borders to help build compositions and define focal areas, offering plenty of creative flexibility. Vignette scenes can be softened by gently moving pigment with a wet brush for a watercolor effect, highlighting one of our favorite qualities of paint inlays.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs a special detail, the beloved cover artwork from this book also appears in our Athenaeum foil transfer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are IOD Paint Inlays?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIOD Paint Inlays are ground-breaking, first-in-class, premium art products that will revolutionize the DIY industry and empower creative exploration across all skill levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, they are AH-MAZING, if we do say so ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIOD Paint Inlays are the artisanal answer to decor transfers. They’re not a decal; they’re not a synthetic film; they’re not decoupage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you apply an IOD Paint Inlay, paint is physically embedded into the surface of your project. After drying, the carrier paper is removed, leaving an authentic painted design and a buttery, almost leather-like surface on your piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do IOD Paint Inlays work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIOD Paint Inlays are made from a proprietary artist-quality paint which we formulated specifically for decorative use. Organic in nature, the Paint Inlays transfer the painted design yielding a slightly varied and uniquely beautiful aesthetic each time they’re used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe results are visually interesting, texturally complex, and often inherently distressed. The paint formula is 'active' until sealed. That means that you can manipulate it and apply special techniques or a custom touch before you seal your piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan IOD Paint Inlays be reused?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd, as if once isn't enough, you can usually get a beautifully faded second impression, with the residual pigment on your 'leftover' Paint Inlay sheets. Depending on the techniques and colors you are using with your Paint Inlay, sometimes you can even get a third impression!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIMPORTANT NOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFor best results with a basic application, use a chalk-type paint that does not contain polymers. (Polymer-based paints and topcoats can also be used, but the timing and results vary, so check out our tutorials for that and more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Red Bird Decor \u0026 More","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51505940660522,"sku":null,"price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0861\/3409\/6170\/files\/IOD-INL-LITfront_cover.jpg?v=1778087987","url":"https:\/\/redbirddecorandmore.com\/products\/little-lark-iod-paint-inlay","provider":"Red Bird Decor \u0026 More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
