The Trash Polka 5 decoupage print pairs the range’s signature paint-drip grit with a romantic Paris theme: the Eiffel Tower rises through a checkerboard-and-newsprint background, framed by red roses, black-and-red butterflies and hand-painted hearts. Affirmations — “Good Things Take Time,” “Keep Going,” “Same Girl Bigger Dreams” — sit alongside vintage Paris postmarks for a design that feels equal parts travel journal and street art, with no central portrait so it slots easily around other pieces in the range.

Ideal For

This Trash Polka 5 decoupage print is ideal for crafters who want the range’s bold energy with a romantic, travel-inspired twist — useful as a stand-alone statement or layered with the portrait designs in the series. It works as a furniture wrap, a framed graphic print, or a background layer in a mixed-media project.

Perfect for Furniture

Because the Trash Polka 5 decoupage print has no central portrait to align, it’s an easy design to apply across awkward panel shapes and drawer seams — the checkerboard grid and paint-drip texture blend naturally into cut edges and joins. It reads equally well as a full-panel wrap on a large cabinet or as a torn accent piece layered with the range’s portrait designs.

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
• Tear rather than cut along the design’s existing red drip and paper-tear edges for a raw, hand-painted look

Décor Styles

The Trash Polka 5 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 Eiffel Tower motif also makes 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 5 decoupage print gives crafters a versatile, Paris-inspired texture option: bold enough to stand alone, flexible enough to pair with the range’s portrait designs as a background layer. It’s a fast way to turn a plain surface into a conversation piece.

Why Choose Sublimation Prints
