    Thank you so much! I tried this with gloss finish Mod Podge and plain bond paper with a design printed from my printer. I put 2 layers of Mod Podge, let it dry overnight. Then I laid down my design on the painted wood, used some parchment paper over the design, used a HOT DRY iron. Took about 10 seconds and the design adhered beautifully. No bubbles, no slipping, no wrinkles, just wonderful. After it cooled, I then coated the whole thing again with another two coats of Mod Podge, letting it dry in between coats and my craft is perfect. I was nervous about getting small pieces of paper wet with the Mod Podge and feared wrinkling or slipping, but this technique is wonderful. It turned out beautiful.

      I was curious about this. I wanted to make an anniversary gift for my daughter and her husband with the longitude and latitude and date of their wedding. (February 29, 2012). Their 2nd anniversary is coming up this coming February. They got married after being together 10 years, their slogan was "10 years long, 10 years strong". I want to add all these things to a picture of their kiss. I am truly excited!!!

      when it comes to printing pictures, I've only used Laser printers so I can't answer with 100% certainty that the ink will not smear. It worked great with the Laser copies. Piecing them together would work but you'd have to be really precise to get it all to line up seamlessly. @@ritaholmes6962

    After watching this video, I've decided to do a plywood floor in my kitchen. Planning to do Provence & white stripe, alternating planks. Looking for the right napkins or tissue to match the Provence, but wanting some pinks in the flowers, not too busy. I'm working in a 40' shipping container, so it will be a galley kitchen. I'm using 5 (BOQ type units) (shelves on top, drop-down desk, drawers on bottom) as my kitchen cabinets, so may do decoupage on desk part. Did a little sample already & can't wait to do it. Thinking I can paint & decoupage my boards before laying them, so I'm not crawling around on the floor to do it.

      Actually....I think you may get along just fine as long as you use good corning glassware....like 70/80s pyrex. Not the newer ones that come from China. Glass museum in Corning New York may be able to help. They can tell you the fracture temperature for various pieces. I just use old Corning glass for everything....crafting or eating.

  • @Grambo1946
    @Grambo1946 Před 5 lety +4

    I tried this and it is working great so far, I'm at the stage where I just put the GH over the tissue and it wrinkled up hopefully when it drys it will smooth out when I iron it again. By the way I didn't have any parchment paper so I used some of my tracing paper. I'm on a tight budget and can't afford too many Prima transfers yet, so using tissue paper fits. I just wish I could find a tissue company that wasn't as slow at shipping. Update: after my GH dried the wrinkles did not go away. I ironed them flat and it looks kind of like a crackle effect. I used 10 lb tissue, next time I'll use 18lb.

    • @AjsVintageDesigns
      @AjsVintageDesigns  Před 5 lety +60

      The reason I painted it the green first I had said that I wasn't sure if I was going to cover the entire top of the board with tissue paper or if I was going to do a torn edge (tearing the tissue paper so it only covers part of the top to look more antique)..... I was going to do the torn edge, then the green would have to go all the way up to the torn edge because you don't want the white to be visible. When doing projects like this you film and then edit the video otherwise you'd have to sit and wait for the paint to dry with me....so I painted the entire top (since I was using the green for the rest of the board's bottom and sides anyway so that I was prepped and ready on video for what ever look I ended up going with).... I had decided to cover the entire top with the tissue paper so I just went ahead and painted the entire top the white. Hope this makes sense.

      Dear Art House, she painted the whole piece in the Spanish Moss green, and then painted the top in white so that the decoupage tissue paper would show up against it. She wanted the edges to be in the green colour so they would match the green leaves on the tissue paper, but, when you decoupage with light coloured paper it's best to have a white surface underneath so that the paper shows up against it. I hope that makes sense to you. Love from Amanda in Australia

      You can cover an oops of gloss, with a thin coat of matte to matte it post, application. I learned this 25 years ago. To get a sharp graphic use multiple clear shiny coats, then a single matte coat last if that is the final look. Multiple matte coarse can soften graphing and lines. If that is your goal. Try it, it works.

    • @AjsVintageDesigns
      @AjsVintageDesigns  Před 5 lety +2

      I've never tried it with a photograph, because liquids make the inks in photographs bleed or run, so you'd have to print them on a laser printer first to avoid the risk of the ink running and I've never used the circuit easy press either but as long as you can control the heat levels of the press you should be fine with that. I don't recommend using a spray sealer because the amount of product / sealer that would actually get on the area you are decoupaging may not be enough to reactivate when using the iron.

      I have the done the same method with Mod Podge, I noticed that she stated on another comment by someone, that she quit using Mod Podge after ruining a few items.
      There are several tutorials out there using Mod Podge, I use napkins to do mine.

  • @mindymiller3270
    @mindymiller3270 Před 4 lety +4

    Here's what works best for me. I use Mod Podge to apply, and when dry I literally dust the decal area with a light mist of clear acrylic spray and that completely seals it and stops all wrinkling and bubbles from applying a top wet coat. After that is dry, you then apply more Mod Podge or whatever you like on top. Easier and faster.

    why waste the paint to just paint white over it ?

    • @AjsVintageDesigns
      @AjsVintageDesigns  Před 5 lety +1

      I wasn't sure if I was going to do a "torn edge" or just cover the entire top. If I would have torn around the tissue paper for a ruff / torn edge look I would have needed to have the dried sage go all the way up to the torn paper to blend it in. I don't want the white / Fluff to be visible anywhere their isn't tissue paper. Hope that makes sense. So I could have painted it the white to begin with, but I hadn't decided what I was going to do as far as a look with the tissue paper when I started.

      Sherrill hubbard -as a general rule, when you Decoupage an item, you might put a layer of Gesso down first because
      a) you want to have a consistent surface texture on the surface you put your images on,
      b) it makes the surface you’re covering a better color for decoupage (if you are preparing a red surface, with fine white papers and images, for example. You probably don’t want the red to show under the white because it might muddy or dim the color of the image
      c) if you Gesso the piece you’re working on, you will have white edges, esp on canvas pieces which usually have an inch to cover all the way around. You have to cover that edge if you put your piece in a show, auction or other display. But you can skip this step if you have Gessoed.
      (And...Gesso is the wonderful ‘Artist Liquid Paper’ - If you make an error in the piece your working on, you can Gesso over it and fix it right up!)
      Now, I’ve told you more than you ever wanted to know in the world about decoupage and painting!

    Love the project. First time to see your channel so I was a little confused as to what kind of paint you were using. Was it chalk, Acrylic different or latex. Also when you talk about adding different colors to the top I was not sure of what you were talking about. Example adding fluff to the top. Not being familiar with your product and colors it was very confusing.

    • @AjsVintageDesigns
      @AjsVintageDesigns  Před 4 lety +1

      I've never had an issue with the tissue paper bubbling up. If I had any slight bubbles, after the top coat...when it dried they all played back down. I use this method a lot, so I'm not sure what went wrong with yours without seeing what you did or what products you used.

I used a chalk paint to paint the board (Dixie Belle is the brand of paint) and a top coat is a water based polycrylic sealer that you use to seal paint (gator hide is the name of the top coat sealer and its also from dixie belle) You can use a water bases polycrylic and paint from your local hardware and parchment paper can be found in your baking isle in your grocery store (not wax paper...

      Chris jones. I've been doing this for years. Just paint in white acrylic paint. When dry, modpoge and when that's dry, cover with grease proof paper and iron on a low setting. I use large rice paper for decoupage, rather than tissue paper, it's less likely to bubble . It's not edible rice paper and comes in lots of beautiful designs.
