Paint Inlay, 8 Pages, 12” x 16”, 8 Color  

Named for Marie Antoinette’s country retreat at Versailles, Hameau de la Reine – 8-Page 12x16" Paint Inlay is where French farmhouse meets quiet decadence. Inspired by the working ranch she created as an escape from court life, this Paint Inlay blends pastoral imagery with refined, old-world beauty.

Soft distressing is intentionally built into the artwork, giving the designs a naturally aged feel from the very first use. A classic French palette of off-black, rich cobalt blue, and a deep plum-brown brings warmth and character, revealing subtle variation with each application. Thoughtfully scaled with a mix of full panels and coordinating elements, the imagery is designed to be used together on a single piece with ease.

Romantic, storied, and unmistakably French, Hameau de la Reine invites you to create work that feels collected, timeworn, and beautifully lived in.

Handy Tip: Achieve significantly different looks by changing up the background color the inlays are placed into.  

 What are IOD Paint Inlays?
IOD Paint Inlays are ground-breaking, first-in-class, premium art products that will revolutionize the DIY industry and empower creative exploration across all skill levels.

IOD Paint Inlays are the artisanal answer to decor transfers. They’re not a decal; they’re not a synthetic film; they’re not decoupage. When you apply an IOD Paint Inlay, paint is physically embedded into a wet painted surface. 

How do IOD Paint Inlays work?
IOD Paint Inlays are made from a proprietary artist-quality paint which we formulated specifically for decorative use. Organic in nature, the Paint Inlays transfer the painted design yielding a slightly varied and uniquely beautiful aesthetic each time they’re used.  The results are visually interesting, texturally complex, and often inherently distressed. The paint formula is 'active' until sealed. That means that you can manipulate it and apply special techniques or a custom touch before you seal your piece.

Can IOD Paint Inlays be reused?
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 that does not contain polymers. (Polymer-based paints and topcoats can also be used, but the timing and results vary, so check out our tutorials for that and more.
