The Trash Polka 3 decoupage print softens the range’s signature grit with a touch of romance: a portrait with tousled red-streaked hair, warm freckles and a thoughtful gaze, set against a bold red-and-cream checkerboard collage. Paris motifs — the Sacré-Cœur skyline, a vintage postmark and the line “Paris Mon Amour” — sit alongside affirmations like “Different Girl Same Dreams” and “Beauty in Every Chaos” for a design that’s equal parts dreamy and edgy.

Ideal For

This Trash Polka 3 decoupage print is ideal for crafters who want the boldness of the Trash Polka range with a softer, more romantic edge — the checkerboard backdrop and Paris details give it a distinct identity within the series. It works as a furniture focal point, a framed wall piece, or the centrepiece of a mixed-media journal or tray.

Perfect for Furniture

Because the Trash Polka 3 decoupage print is built from a dense, edge-to-edge checkerboard collage, it covers awkward panel shapes and drawer seams without leaving obvious gaps — the repeating red-and-cream pattern blends naturally into cut edges and joins. It reads as a striking accent on a single drawer front or as a full-panel wrap across a larger cabinet or trunk.

Application Tips

• Seal bare wood before applying to prevent uneven absorption and dulled colour
• Smooth from the centre outward, working along the checkerboard lines to keep the pattern straight
• Finish with a matte or satin varnish to protect the black outlines and keep the reds from yellowing over time
• Centre the portrait as your focal point first, then work outward to the checkerboard edges

Décor Styles

The Trash Polka 3 decoupage print suits eclectic, industrial and modern-glam interiors, and slots comfortably into “girl power” and self-love-themed decor alongside typography pillows and black-and-red accessories. The Parisian motifs also make it a natural fit for romantic, travel-inspired bedroom and vanity styling.

Why You’ll Love It

Most decoupage sheets lean vintage or floral — this one doesn’t. The Trash Polka 3 decoupage print gives crafters a bold, contemporary option with a softer emotional core than the rest of the range, so the finished piece feels personal and custom-made rather than printed. It’s a fast way to turn a plain surface into a conversation piece.

Why Choose Sublimation Prints

Every design in our decoupage range, including the Trash Polka 3 decoupage print, is prepared and colour-checked specifically for sublimation printing — not just resized from a generic stock graphic. That means less test-printing, more consistent colour, and a finished piece that looks as good as the preview.
