Decoupage Frame

Since Linda Watson does a substantial amount of decoupage, she has developed a sizable collection of photographs, drawings, and other designs collected from assorted catalogs. She has the pictures filed by subject to make them easier to find when she wants to make a personalized decoupage gift, whether it be a frame, a box, or some other item. Linda has also used many of her vacation photographs for her "traveling" decoupage collages and art.

Some of the lucky recipients of Linda's decoupage designs are her mom, her dentist, Carol, a segment producer on the show, and an Elvis fan. She has also used her vacation pictures for decoupage.
