LITTLE WHITE BIRD

Give your furniture and craft projects a striking transformation with premium decoupage papers — available in the UK through LittleWhiteBird.co.uk. We carry two standout ranges: Redesign With Prima and Mint by Michelle, offering beautiful designs, trouble-free application, and excellent print quality.

Our Redesign With Prima decoupage papers come in multiple formats, from large A1 sheets to tissue papers perfect for layering. Their fibrous structure makes them less prone to tearing — ideal for those new to decoupage.

Meanwhile, Mint by Michelle is a furniture-focused brand designed by a furniture artist. Their papers are carefully curated with ideal paper weight, sizes, and print quality for furniture refurbishment. Their standard decoupage designs are available in A1 and A3 sizes, making it easy to choose the right scale for your piece.

These papers work beautifully on a wide range of surfaces — wood, MDF, glass, metal, canvas — as long as you apply them properly. Use a quality decoupage medium (or glue), smooth carefully to eliminate bubbles, and seal with varnish or wax for durability. We stock both Redesign With Prima and Pentart's excellent decoupage glues.

Whether you're working on a dresser, table, drawer fronts, accent panels, or decorative boxes, these decoupage papers give you the flexibility to scale and style your design. And for beginners, choose the more forgiving thicker or fibrous sheets to reduce tearing.

We also provide a How to Decoupage Guide on-site (with tips, techniques, dos & don’ts) to help you succeed your first time.

Explore our full decoupage collection — from Redesign to Mint by Michelle — and start creating signature pieces that truly reflect your style.
