Saint Germain

Meet the Saint Germain IOD Transfer, a collection of gorgeous florals inspired by gouache paintings found in a book called Saint Germain Volumes 1 and 2. The artist is unknown, but the blooms are a mesmerizing celebration of the floral form. With soft light and delicately contrasting shadows dancing across each bloom, this transfer is absolutely delightful. 

Envision pairing Saint Germain with elegant typography from Kindest Regards, adorning a thrifted lamp with a rustic wood base, or creating beautiful wall decor. With eight 12” x 16” sheets, our small decor crowd is going to be just giddy with how much they can create from this set! 

We’re dreaming of Saint Germain on large furniture pieces like darling vintage wooden bedframes or vanities, but there is so much variety in sizes for rolling pins, trays, or jars. It pairs beautifully with our Petits Ornements Gilded Transfer or with Trimmings Moulds for a truly romantic vibe.

There’s something about these florals that feels timeless and bold all at once like they were meant to be passed down and treasured. We can’t wait to see what you create with this one. 💕

PREPARATION IS KEY.

Keep your transfer with its backing sheet until you are ready to apply. Keep free of dust or debris, which will interfere with adhesion. Do not allow the adhesive side of transfer to touch anything prior to application. When handling the transfer, avoid letting the adhesive side touch itself (don’t do in a windy environment). Do not store transfer in extreme temperatures or humid conditions, which can affect adhesion.

APPLICATION

Start with a clean, dry, matte surface.  If painted, we like to use Fusion paint for these,  make sure it’s well cured, and if you have sanded the paint make certain there is no residual dust. All of these things will interfere with adhesion.

Carefully remove the transfer from its white backing. Slowly and carefully lower the transfer onto your intended surface, making sure that it does not touch until the placement is correct. Use small pieces of low tack tape to hold it in place.

Using the provided tool, or one of your choice, start at one end of the transfer and rub firmly to adhere the image to the surface. Do this until the entire image is transferred. You are welcome for the free arm workout as well. If any parts aren’t transferred when you lift, simply lay it back down and rub more on that portion. After it is transferred, with a clean dry hand, smooth down any bits that aren’t flatly adhered.

We recommend sealing with Beeswax Finish or Tough Coat.
