Understanding Cream Glue and Decoden 🎀

The cream glue is the essential element that gives this craft its signature look and texture.

What is Cream Glue?

Texture: Also known as simulation cream or clay glue, it has a texture similar to whipped cream or frosting.
Drying: It is a non-toxic, air-drying adhesive that dries to a soft, flexible finish, making it perfect for Decoden projects.
Application: It comes in various colors and is packaged with decorating tips that allow you to pipe swirls, dollops, or other patterns onto your wooden heart base.

The Decoden Style

Decoden is a crafting trend often used to personalize items like phone cases, accessories, and, in this case, wooden hearts.

The goal is to cover the surface with the cream glue and then embed tiny, colorful embellishments for a playful, overloaded look.

Choosing Your Decorations and Assembly Tips ✨

The fun part is customizing your hearts with your favorite “sprinkles” and charms!

Embellishments for Hearts

You can use a wide variety of small decorations to embed in the wet cream glue:

Sweet Treats: Heart-shaped sequins, flat-back polymer clay charms (like tiny gummy bears or fruit slices), or small beads.
Sparkle: Glitter or small rhinestones.
For Hanging: Ribbon, twine, or tassels (optional) for the finishing touch.

Assembly Process

Design First: It can be helpful to quickly sketch out your design or look online for inspiration before piping.
Pipe the Cream: Using your chosen decorating tip, pipe the cream glue onto the unfinished wood heart, filling the surface with swirls or dollops.
Decorate While Wet: Immediately place your chosen decorations onto the wet glue, arranging and layering them as desired.
Drying Time: Set the hearts aside and allow them to dry completely. Drying time can vary depending on the thickness of the glue application, so be patient!
