MIRI – Pustaka Miri organized Creative Women Workshop: Decoupage –
English-Styled Decorative Art (Bengkel Wanita Kreatif: Decoupage – Seni
Hiasan Ala Inggeris) on Saturday, 28th January 2012.

The mini workshop was held at the library’s Multipurpose Room and the
facilitator is a local decoupage enthusiast Vivi Shalawati Ahmad who has
been doing the handicraft for several years.

The workshop was to teach the participants decoupage skills which can be
used to generate side income for housewives as well as working women.

Some 30 participants, including men, learnt the easy-to-apply techniques
hands-on and brought home their masterpieces.

Decoupage is the art of decorating an object by gluing color paper
cut-outs onto it in combination with special paint effects, gold leaf
and so on. This hobby encourages recycling by using used items which in
the end, become colourful and beautiful pieces of art
