Little Lark is our first 8” x 12” small-format paint inlay, created for detailed, smaller-scale projects. The artwork is drawn from the 19th-century book The Bird by Jules Michelet, featuring birds, nests, florals, and pastoral vignettes in a classic toile-inspired layout—full of charming details that you just have to see up close to appreciate.

Rendered in a three-color palette of sepia black, indigo, and soft green—reminiscent of vintage china—it’s perfect for creating your own faux china-style finishes. The set includes frames, wreaths, and borders to help build compositions and define focal areas, offering plenty of creative flexibility. Vignette scenes can be softened by gently moving pigment with a wet brush for a watercolor effect, highlighting one of our favorite qualities of paint inlays.

As a special detail, the beloved cover artwork from this book also appears in our Athenaeum foil transfer.

IOD Paint Inlays are the artisanal answer to decor transfers. You can use the IOD Paint Inlay on glass, fabric, and of course wood. They’re not a decal; they’re not a synthetic film; they’re not decoupage. It’s oh so much better! When you apply an IOD Paint Inlay, paint is physically embedded into the surface of your project. After drying, the carrier paper is removed, leaving an authentic painted design and a buttery, almost leather-like surface on your piece.

And, as if once isn't enough, you can usually get a beautifully faded second impression, with the residual pigment on your 'leftover' Paint Inlay sheets. Depending on the techniques and colors you are using with your Paint Inlay, sometimes you can even get a third impression!

Important Note: For best results with a basic application, use a chalk-type paint, like our Debi DIY paint https://rusticranchfurniture.ca/collections/debi-diy-products that does not contain polymers and is VOC free.

There is a bit of a learning curve with the inlay but the results are oh so worth it. We think you're going to love them!
