@@creativityinnovatio1 Hello! Yes, I put a light coat of mod podge on top to make sure the ends are sealed. After the mod podge is completely dry (24-48 hours) I seal with high heat engine enamel found in auto part stores. Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting 😊

@@marietakotze4418 Yes, I use clear high heat engine enamel which can be found in auto parts stores. I spray 2 coats, completely drying in between coats and let cure at least 7 days. Thanks so much for watching 😊

@@marlenedean1569 Thank you so much for watching 😊

@@kelh3012 Thank you so much for watching 😊

I use 1 coat before applying the napkin and 1 coat to seal it. Thank you so much for watching 😊

With the iron on method, parchment paper is the only thing that will not stick to the napkin. Thanks so much for watching 😊

No I haven’t. My thought is it would peel off eventually. 🤔

Yes, you could if you’d like. Thanks so much for watching 😊

Thank you so much for watching!

Yes, I apply a light layer of mod podge especially to secure the edges. Thank you so much for watching 😊

Yes, exactly. A piece of cardboard or parchment paper needs to be inside to prevent that from happening. Thank you so much for watching 😊

Welcome Becky! I hope you enjoy decoupage as much as I do. I have not worked with photos but I know it can be done. I’m sure you will find a good video on the process. Thank you so much for watching and happy crafting 😊

Welcome! Thank you for watching 😊

I’m sorry that happened to you. My guess is that too much mod podge was used. After ironing, I basically do the edges to make sure they are secure and a very thin coat on top. You can try ironing it again. If that doesn’t work, since it hasn’t cured yet, run the tile under water to remove the napkin. I hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching 😊

@@jodyssimpletreasures4421 thank you. I will try that.

Canvas is fine to use the iron on method. I have a video using 4x4 canvases if you want to check that out. You can decoupage foam board but I wouldn’t use an iron. Coat the foam board with mod podge, either the whole thing or you could work in sections. Lay your napkin down then use either Saran Wrap or a baggie to smooth any wrinkles. I prefer the baggie. I put my hand inside and gently smooth the wrinkles out. I hope this helps. Good luck on your project. Thanks so much for watching 😊

I’ve seen in my craft group that some people do use Minwax Polycrylic. They brush on 2 coats drying fully between coats, and say hot cups do not stick. I imagine the spray would work the same but I personally have not tried either since I prefer the high heat engine enamel. I hope it works for you if you decide to try it. 😊 Thanks so much for watching!

Cups?! Cripes another giant avenue to travel 👍☮️😀

It’s amazing how many beautiful napkins are out there. Thank you so much for watching 😊

Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

There’s an iron that might work on your project. It’s the Clover Mini Iron. It’s a very small triangle shaped iron on the end of a wand. It’s made for those very tight spaces. I’ve seen them at Michael’s and JoAnn Fabrics. I hope this is an option for your projects. Thanks so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

Welcome! I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do 😊. Yes, napkins can be very expensive. That’s why I suggest joining napkin swap groups on Facebook. Then you can get the one or two you need for your project. Good luck and thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

Hmm just FYI when I googled decoupage napkins I ended up buying two or three someone had parceled up for $12 but when I googled party catering napkins I got just about the same designs $5:90 for 20! Wedding napkins a bit dear too but amazing

My pleasure! Good luck!

I wait at least a week. Thank you so much for watching 😊

So you seal with mod podge, let dry a week & then spray with the high heat sealer. Thanks so much.

Yes. But just keep in mind the mod podge still needs to cure for 28 days.

You mean after all the sealing is done?

The mod podge has to cure for 28 days regardless of when you seal it for your items to be usable. The soonest I use a sealer is 7 days, but I’ve also waited close to the 28 days before sealing.

Thank you so much for watching!

The iron on method is my go to always 😊. I bought the iron at JoAnn fabrics. Unfortunately it doesn’t work well for me, so I went back to my full size iron. Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

Lol I only ever use my iron for craft is that bad to admit? I do have two...happy gluing!

Thank you so much. I’m glad you like them. You might want to try printing on tissue paper. You cut the tissue paper a little smaller than the printer paper and tape it on top. It would be thinner and easier to work with. Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

​@@jodyssimpletreasures4421Great idea! I printed some manatees at library but the paper a bit too opaque for window will give this idea a go! Thanks

I wait at least 1 week before sealing with high heat engine enamel. Thanks for watching!

@jodyssimpletreasures4421 after sealing how long before use with the vht

@@lauriejewell6231 The mod podge needs to cure for 28 days for the coaster to be usable.

I have had napkins with the dots and have used them as they are. I tried ironing them out also with no luck. Now I embrace the uniqueness of the look with them. Even though I’m sure you’d rather not have them, I’m sure your project looks beautiful. Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

Thank you so much for your comment and thank you for watching! Happy crafting 😊

Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

You said there was a way to get some sample napkins, How do you do that to practice?@@jodyssimpletreasures4421

Thank you! I’ve learned to live in a right handed world but every now and then it’s a little challenging 😊. Happy crafting!

Thank you so much! Welcome to my channel and happy crafting 😊

Thank you so much for watching 😊

When I use that little iron, i do sit a different way. I wish I would have done that before i started taping lol! Im glad you found this helpful. I hope the littles enjoy it. Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting :)

I’m sorry it was hard to hear. Thank you so much for watching.

Thank you so much for watching!

They can’t be submerged in water just wiped off. There is though dishwasher safe mod podge. I can’t really speak to how well it works as I haven’t used it. I use my plates mostly for decorative purposes or gifts. Sorry about the sound quality but thank you so much watching. Happy crafting 😊

Thank you.for your quick response I thought so. But great to have your clarification

The napkin needs to be totally dry before sealing. Personally I like to wait at least a week before sealing but 24-48 hours would be sufficient. I have found the best results when the sealant cures at least a week. I hope this helps. 😊

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed the videos and found them helpful. I hope you enjoy decoupaging. The possibilities are endless. Happy crafting 😊

Iron on method is my go to. Im so glad it worked for you! Happy crafting 😊

Yes, it seems excessive, but according to the directions on the bottle, mod podge has to “cure” for 28 days to be effective. Mod podge is a glue and will remain sticky until fully cured.

Yes, you can. Depending on the color of the coaster, you might need to paint it white first though. Thanks for watching! Happy crafting 😊

Mod podge is a glue and clear coat is a sealer. You need the mod podge to adhere the napkin. I hope this helps. If you would like some napkins, please email your address along with what you would like. Thanks for watching! 😊

They do make beautiful gifts, whether they’re used as trivets or decorative items. Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊

I never sand the tile before applying mod podge. I do know that some people sand the tile lightly between coats when they apply the final sealer. I don’t though. Thank you so much for watching! 😊

Excuse me?

Your voice reminds me of her ..no insult ..really enjoyed your demonstration .. very elegant .. I mean . I hope I have explained .. ha ha

Lol! That’s a first for me! Thanks for explaining 😊

Welcome Amanda! You are so right my friend. We definitely have to adapt. But we do it and create beautiful things. Here’s to us lefties! 👏

Dear Jodie, I agree, hooray for us lefties - all over the world. Love from Amanda ❤

Thank you so much for watching!

I also use fabric, scrapbook paper and magazine pictures. I have a video using fabric scraps and also fabric backed plates. Thank you so much for watching and your kind comment. Happy crafting 😊
