Introducing Papillon the new Gilded Transfer Pad from Iron Orchid Designs. It's a sophisticated celebration of vintage artworks finished in a lustrous blend of gold and silver. This collection draws from 19th-century publishing ephemera, including bookplate logos, ornate motifs, labels, typography, and a charming series of birdcage illustrations. The mix of imagery blends both refined detail and playful character, all elevated by the metallic finish.

Papillon layers beautifully across a range of surfaces and can be used to create striking focal points or subtle gilded accents. The birdcages pair especially well with floral collections like Madeleine, allowing for elegant, mixed-style compositions. Whether applied to books, trays, décor pieces, or mixed-media artwork, this transfer adds a refined metallic touch that complements both vintage and modern projects.

Iron Orchid Designs Decor Transfers are easy to use and add instant style to your projects. They are delicate and need gentle handling but the results are stunning.

Prep is key - keep your Iron Orchid Designs decor Transfer with its backing sheet until you're ready to use. Keep free of dust and debris which will interfere with adhesion. Don't allow the IOD Decor Transfer to touch anything before application or allow the sticky side touch itself. Don't store in humid conditions or extreme temperatures.

Application - start with a clean matte surface. If painted, make sure the paint has fully cured before you start. Seal your project with a water based sealer before application. Remove the IOD Decor Transfer from its backing and place in position - you can use pieces of low tack tape to hold it in place. Using the plastic tool provided rub the image to stick it to the surface. If any parts haven't stuck simply place the transfer back into position and rub again. You can use your hand, a lint free cloth or the transfer's backing paper to burnish the transfer after application to ensure it is firmly stuck in place. Seal with a good quality water based sealer like Frenchic Finishing Coat.
