Hello & welcome here again!
I love collecting boxes & items that I can use for decoupage. The newest addition is a letterbox cum key holder.
I had an adorable decoupage tissue in my stash from my trip to Bangkok this summer & this mail box was perfect for that.
Alteration of this MDF started with a generous coat of gesso followed by blue chalk paint & white acrylic. Note sure if you can see but I have tried not to have a solid color but create a distress look.
I carefully tore the tissue & decoupaged it in the bottom corner. Brought out the colors once again & blended the background with the tissue.
Once I was happy with the outcome I added some crackle texture, stencilling, stamping & other details.
Here is the final outcome -
