Transform Your Doors with Decoupage Prints
Ever looked at a plain door and thought, This could be so much better? You’re not alone. Doors take up a surprising amount of visual space, yet they’re often overlooked when it comes to home décor. That’s where decoupage prints come in - a simple yet stunning way to turn an ordinary door into a statement piece.
At Lily Grace Design, we’ve taken decoupage to a whole new level with exclusive prints you won’t find anywhere else. These are not your typical florals and vintage patterns - our designs are bold, unique, and made to order.
Let’s talk about why you need this in your life.
Why Decoupage Your Doors?
Most people focus on walls, furniture, and floors. But doors? They’re like a blank canvas hiding in plain sight.
Here’s why decoupage prints are the upgrade you didn’t know you needed:
- Instant Impact: A single sheet can transform a boring door into a focal point.
- No Paint, No Mess: Skip the sanding and priming. Decoupage paper gives you a designer look without the hassle.
- Easy to Change: Tired of the design? No problem. Unlike wallpaper, decoupage is simple to replace.
- Affordable Customization: Get the look of hand-painted artistry without the custom price tag.

Decoupage
Step-by-Step Guide:
Prep Your Surface
- Wipe down your door to remove dust and grease.
- Lightly sand if necessary.
- For best results, use a light-colored base coat (white, light gray, or beige).
Measure & Cut
- Trim the decoupage sheet to fit your door. A sharp craft knife will give you clean edges.
Apply Adhesive
- Brush on a generous layer of water-based sealant or decoupage glue. Don’t skimp - this is what holds everything in place.
Position the Paper
- Gently lay the decoupage sheet onto the adhesive, starting from the center and smoothing outward.
- Use a dry cloth to press out air bubbles.
Seal It In
- Apply a second coat of sealant over the top to protect the design.
- Let it dry completely before handling.
Final Touch
- Once fully dry, add another sealant coat for extra durability. The fibrous nature of the paper allows the sealer to absorb, creating a strong bond.
