  • How To Transfer A Picture To Wood
    ⭐️Updated Video • How To transfer A Pict... ⭐️
    When I first uploaded this video I had to disable comments after 170,000 views due to so many people telling me I said Mod Podge wrong you can only imagine how over whelming it became I also had so many rude mean comments from people that are just looking to cause pain and hurt. My amazing subscribers were defending me and got the backlash I could not allow it any further.
    Now let's jump to 2020 and over 2 Million views I still get tons of positive emails and facebook messages over this video people apologizing for others actions and tons of questions. So I'm ready to see comments again I hope you find this video helpful and please feel free to ask question.
    Thank you to everyone that has watched this video! And thank you to everyone that has sent so many positive emails and messages along the way :)

    COMMON QUESTIONS I GET ASKED
    Paper used?
    regular printer paper 20 pounds
    What printer can I use? Ink jet
    In this video I used laser (I forgot as my sister printed this for me) but over the years I have been using Ink jet.
    Can I use any Mod Podge? Yes
    How did I make the names?
    A vinyl cutter I use a Cricut maker
    Where do I get my contact paper for the vinyl?
    Dollar tree clear shelf liner
    My cousin asked me to make this for her since I use to make these on canvas. So I thought I would share hoping someone would find this helpful :)

    1. When doing this, make sure you reverse (mirror) the image before printing since it will be reversed when you apply it to the wood. (Reflect is usually the transform tool.)
    2. Printers don't print "white" so whatever color the wood is will show through onto the white areas. So this works best with light colors of wood.
    3. Deep knots or irregularities should be filled with wood filler then sanded.
    4. If you apply a Photoshop artistic filter (like brush strokes) then you can use the top layer of Mod Podge to sort of match the brush strokes in the photo. This will give it a bit of a hand-painted look.

    Crystal Ann , great job! For people who want less knots on their pieces of wood planks. It's best to use a premium wood, such as Maple wood or Birch wood. It's lighter in color and images will show through nicely! Thanks for sharing your artistic video, Crystal Ann!😊

    Hi. This is only the second video of your’s I have watched, & I opened the description for info and was shocked by your explanation regarding this post. There were people treating you so poorly you had to disable comments!!??? That’s just people who only feel better about themselves by belittling others!🤯I’m glad you’ve been able to get into the headspace to repost and ignore all mean things people say/said. Personally, I don’t understand the reason for the negativity for the piece. It turned out SO AWESOME!💛💛💛💛

    This is amazing! My mom didn't want us to buy any presents this year. She said that with everything going on, she didn't want my brother and I spending any extra money, so she's always talked about this method, and I thought I'd print out my favorite pictures of my brother, Mom, and I and make a couple of these. Having her explain it was one thing, but of all the videos I watched so that I could actually see it being done, this one was my favorite! I LOVE the addition of the vinyl and staining the wood gave it a little something extra. Mine are drying right now and I hope I can get as flawless a finished product as you did, lol. Great job! Now I want to experiment even more!

    Paper tip* If you have a LaserJet printer...get some self stick label paper. Peel the label part off first and print on the shiny side of the backing paper. Then after you do the Mod Podge step and it dries, you can basically peel it right off. No water, no rubbing, no mess. I believe they also make special transfer paper, but the labels are easier to find.

      actually I just saw another vid where they printed with an inkjet printer....and put it on the wood while it was still wet ..NO MOD PODGE...and peeled the paper off after only a few minutes. BUT you might have to mess with the lightness/darkness of the image OR the density in your printer settings so you don't get TOO MUCH ink on the paper.
