The pictures of the files on this page are small so that they will show up on the web…they are NOT big enough to use for printing!

I made these files for my personal use in my wood blocks and decoupage storage boxes for my home office. They are made from images that are in the public domain, but the designs of the files are mine. Feel free to use them in your craft projects, but not to resell or to make items for sale!

Make laser printer copies if you only have 1 copy of your artwork. When you apply the wet decoupage glue to your paper, it will become fragile, and it may tear.

If you only have 1 copy of your paper, a small tear could ruin your whole project. If you make a copy of the image, you can just start over if you make a mistake. If your only option is to use an inkjet printer, use low-moisture content glue.

Part 2. Decoupage glue can sometimes be difficult to spread over a non-porous surface like glass. To thin it out a little, dip your craft brush into a bowl of water, then dip it into the glue.

Try a little on the glass. If it goes on smoothly, you can apply it as-is. You can either dip the brush directly into the glue container, or you can pour a small amount of the glue onto a shallow plate or bowl if you prefer. You can find decoupage glue anywhere that craft supplies are sold. Mod Podge is the most popular glue used for decoupage, but other brands will work as well. You could even use Elmer's glue thinned out with water in a pinch.

Brush a thin layer of the glue onto the artwork. Make sure to spread the decoupage glue all the way to the edges. If you need to, dip the brush into the glue again to make sure you get even, complete coverage.

Make sure to use thin layers of Mod Podge. Otherwise, the paper may tear. Press the artwork against the glass. Begin at one edge, and gently lay your paper or fabric onto the surface of the glass a little at a time. If you want to see the object through the glass, like looking down onto it from the top of a plate, place it face-down. Add a little extra glue if the paper overlaps anywhere.

Use your fingers or the edge of a flat object to remove any air bubbles. After you have the artwork in place, carefully smooth out any visible air bubbles. For best results, start at the center and work your way out to the edges. Let it dry for several hours or overnight. This is when the paper will be the most fragile, so allow several hours for the glue to set. Part 3. Apply another coat of glue or top coat on top of the image. This is part of a series of posts covering the art of decorating using decoupage techniques.

I was just wondering if there is a reason you used regular paper instead of the napkin on top of the box.

Really want to try making one myself. Thanks for your ideas. Hi Karen! Thanks so much. I think it would look even prettier with the napkin on top, so you can easily make that change with yours. Best of luck! Thank you so much! Hi Tracy! Yes, you should be able to spray the inkjet printed image with an acrylic sealer before using Mod Podge. I would spray both sides with very light coats a few times in a well-ventilated area, of course.

I use a similar sealer for other craft projects, by the way. It adds a nice protective coat to finish things off. Glad you like the spoons! How long after using Mod Podge do I need to wait before applying sealer? Thank you! Hi Lucy! I would wait about 30 minutes to 1 hour for the top coats of Mod Podge to try before applying a spray sealer. Perhaps it would help clarify the process.

That sounds very long based on my experience. Best of luck to you! Feel free to write back with any more questions. I am using a gloss finish mod podge to glue, coat an invitation. I sanded wood, sealed with a spray acrylic sealer, used glossy mod podge to attach to wood, then coated with 3 coats of the same mod podge. Hi Andrea! There are a few things that could be causing the crinkling. Did you spray acrylic sealer on the wood before using Mod Podge?

My tissue box has held up well. Not sure if seeing me go through the steps might help. Such an awesome blog! All the information provided by you is really very helpful for all. By using tack cloth we can keep our project dust-free, it will make their work easier.

Keep Posting! Keep Sharing! If you plan to use a very thin paper like tissue paper or napkin, you just run the risk of the wood showing through. That might be the effect you want, however, depending on the project. I hope that answered your question. Good luck! Hello Crissy, Thank you so much for getting back to me, I really appreciate it.
