Just in case someone is wondering if this works...Aafter receiving my set of coasters from you - I can endorse your application method. My Husband looked at the coasters and said 'Have these been printed on to the coaters'?! That's how good these look. No creases, bubbles or wrinkles at all. Stunning finish xx
Ready enjoyed video,I have bought lot of items and wondered if could be capable of doing it as am chronically sick and be something to focus on thank you really enjoyed the video don't think I'm clever enough though to do it myself
Lovely tutorial. I was hosting Christmas dinner this year and was so disappointed how my table looked with my very unchrismassy table mats and coasters, I’m definitely going to do this with festive napkins! Thank you for sharing x
Of all the different kind of decoupage work I have seen, this is the best method that I have ever seen. A perfect finish. I can't wait to experiment mine now. Thank you.
I have done decopauge for over 40 years and I love your technique! You explained it very clearly and easily so even a beginner can do it. Very good video!😻
Thank you for the wonderful demo. I always thought decoupage was something I just didn't have the skill and patience for--to get just right, that is. This is a real eye-opener. Can't wait to try it!
I like this technique. It reminds me of how window tinters apply their product to car or building windows. Gonna have to try this method 'cuz I've had some pretty bad decoupage failures in the past and I think this may guide me to success. TFS!
Hello Iveta! My name is Donna, and I live in Florida, in the USA. I watched this video several times before I actually fort the courage to actually try it. I have never decoupaged before, but I really wanted to try this method. I took it slow, and worked with my napkin as patiently as I could. I can’t believe that I actually did it! I got a round piece of wood from my local dollar store, and painted it black and white. I applied my napkin to the white end of the round.it looks so good! Thank you for sharing this with all of us! I can’t wait to do some fall decor!
You can use this same process on large pieces! The trick is in working in sections. My friend and I did an armoire for her daughters wedding present from mum using this technique. We laid it down on it's back to do the front. When that was finished & dry we paid it first on one side then the other to complete the sides. The trick is to work in small sections and piece them together on the project. Like you we added a crackle finish. The end result was spectacular and produced a piece to be treasured for life. It took us 2 full weekends devoted to doing just the decoupaging but so well worth the time. The primary difference was we had to separate the sections we planned to use from the rest of the napkin. We used 3 different pattern napkins. One that was an open vine print, one that had birds and a floral set of napkins that had 4 different large flowers. I've since done a large urn using the same technique as an anniversary gift. The armoire was picked up on the roadside! We'd been searching thrift stores & yard sales for one like it. Great find! The Urn came from a thrift store for $2 us. Ebay is the source for all our napkins. Be a little careful of the really cheap sets from China. They're often so thin whole sections will just dissolve when you get them wet.
Thank you so much. I’ve never seen this before so it’s a revelation for me. I really really love 💕 how that coaster turned out so stunning and gorgeous.
I love this method! I really love using napkins for decoupage so it’s great to have this tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing your technique! I subscribed
Great process and I am impressed with how it turned out. I was surprised when you added the mod podge to the wet napkin. I am planning on making coaster sets for my coworkers. Thank you for sharing your technique.
I personally would love to see every step start to finish of not only the napkin application, but the coaster preparation and then the crackle finish and framing. The finished compositions look great!
Hi, thank you for your kind words, I didn’t really think about that at the time to be honest so I now uploaded a video about crackle effect I just uploaded a video on it - ruclips.net/video/0u62GSAJDhs/видео.html 😊 and my next one will be about coasters
I just came across your channel & I'm so glad I did! I always have wrinkles, when applying napkins, but this looks like an easy solution. I can't wait to try it. Tfs. Blessings & Peace
I will try that method of mod podging napkins....I love it! So beautiful! As always thank you for sharing! Stay safe, healthy and positive! GOD bless you and your family! 🙏❤🇺🇸
I love your tutorial, especially the motif on the napkin. The blue tit was my favorite bird when I lived in Austria. I have not seen one since I moved to the USA (South Dakota) in 1956. I miss them!
Helga Maria Szameit They are lovely! I listen to them everyday, even now in winter. Early in the morning they are the first thing I hear! Sending hugs from Wien!
Just came across your tutorial and I love it! Your technique is unusual but it works so well. Thanks for sharing. I must confess, more than half the enjoyment of watching was because of the image you chose.; absolutely lovely.
Thank you! I put a napkin on the back of a clear plate recently and although imperfection is acceptable I would have liked not having wrinkles in the napkin. Once I put on the Modge Podge, it crackled which gave it a little more texture, but I ended up having to paint over the Modge Podge layer with white paint because the napkin itself was too translucent. Painting it made the napkin image stand out more and I'm ok with the result, but will try this method on some coasters next.
You make it so easy 🤩 Some day I'll start with this, and when I Will I have your videos to learn from, you always explane so I get it 😊 They are lovely 🥰💖
By a plastic folder do u mean a document protector? I’m a little confused if the plastic is the type where u can a document (napkin) in between or if the plastic u are using is just a sheet of plastic. Did u purchase it from Amazon? R u in the UK? I was wondering the exact product u r using
Thank you so much for your tutorial. You explained everything very clearly. I found it very useful and thus far the best and easiest way to decoupage. GOD Bless
You can do this way easier by putting some diluted modge podge down the spritz the napkin or whatever you’re using with a water spray bottle, lay it down then apply MP on top gently. You won’t have all the excess water & it’s faster
@@colleenrochellefarlow4285 you may be able to get them from Pat Catan stores. If not there I would try Joanne Fabrics stores. You can also get them off eBay as plywood blanks or etsy. Best of luck finding them.
Hi, yeah, I didn’t really think about it at the time, I just uploaded a video on the crackle effect - ruclips.net/video/0u62GSAJDhs/видео.html 😊 and my next one is going to be on how to make coasters, start to finish ☺️
All you had to do was to put the dry napkin on top over the gesso (pronounced Jesso) while it was still just a little tacky, make sure it's smooth, then when fully dry, slowly brush on matte gel medium or thinned matte ModPodge.
Your system with applying decopage is amazing, I have done a lot of decopage in the past but now I will try your method. Thañk you so much for sharing.😄
I am new to decoupage and have had several failed attempts until seeing this method!! OMGoodness, first try worked perfect! The most important thing is when spreading it on the page protector to use a soft brush and light easy strokes. I am so happy! Thank you for sharing your talents with us? 💕
You are brilliant! I messed up three expensive napkins by trying to do as the others did. Then I watched your video, got a cheap napkin and was successful. Yeah, I got a little impatient and messed it up a little bit. Lesson learned. But overall for a first try it was great! You're the champ!
Thank you for the tutorial. I’m new to decoupage and the projects I’m wanting to do are a bit larger. My first attempt was a disaster . I’m going to try it this way! I’ll take your advice and do some small things first. Have a lovely day!
I nailed this first time with a project nearly full napkin size!!! And it was my first ever decoupage project! Awesome tutorial!
Perfection! I just completed my first decoupage project using your water technique ….No bubbles and No wrinkles! Thank you! 🎉😊❤

How was the crackle effect done?
Where do I get this kind of coaster. What are they called?
Lovely tutorial. I was hosting Christmas dinner this year and was so disappointed how my table looked with my very unchrismassy table mats and coasters, I’m definitely going to do this with festive napkins! Thank you for sharing x
No problem, happy to help.
I've just started decoupage and was so pleased to find this tutorial. It's massively helpful, thank you!! xx

The BEST wet napkin decoupage tutorial by far! Such a soothing process, thank you ❣️

This video is way too long
@@lindaferguson378 ..and WAY too wordy!
TIP: mute the volume, and put it on 1.5 x speed to get through it.
I've never done decopage (sp) or had a desire to do it, but I was fascinated by your video and watched the entire thing. Thanks!
I am starting my 1st decoupage project and definitely going to try this method. Thank you for the instruction
What a marvelous way to avoid those imperfections with napkins! Thank you so much!

Beautiful. When will you show how you did the crackling effect.
Brilliant! I love that you can see through the plastic and napkin. Thank you!

Yeah but you also get wrinkles that way. And when you try to gently brush them out, risk tearing the napkin.
Thank you. I struggle with wrinkles and tears so this looks great for me
Hopefully it’ll work great for you too! 🥰
Beautifully done and great instructions! Thank you.❤️
You are a very good instructor! Thank you for the lesson.
The plastic folder is called a sheet protector!
AKA - plastic folder.
Where do you get blank coasters from?
@@colleenrochellefarlow4285 you may be able to get them from Pat Catan stores. If not there I would try Joanne Fabrics stores. You can also get them off eBay as plywood blanks or etsy. Best of luck finding them.
where did you get the blank coasters at? if you made them how and out of what thanks very much
Decoupage napkins are about $1 EACH! :/
Melisse Clark I think your question was where does she get her COASTERS?
I get my blanks off eBay or Etsy ☺️just search for mdf or plywood coaster blanks
It looks so beautiful. I hope I can achieve the same results once I try this. Thanks for the clear instructions, they help a lot.
Thank you, I hope it works just as well for you as it does for me! ☺
What a great tutorial thank you so much Iveta. Have never thought of doing it like that bless you 😊❤🤗
I like this very much, clingfilm is not my friend 😁 Thank you
I wish you would have shown how to finish it off, I love the results but again I wish I could have seen finishing of it ☹️

how did you get the line effect in the finished product...
