Yay! RUclips gifted me with this video this morning and I’m impressed both by your techniques and your straightforward and easy to follow instructions. And NO music to distract the viewer!!!!! I especially liked you mentioning being anxious and wanting to add more Mod Podge. I struggle with that a lot. I’m on a mission to watch your other videos now. You have another happy fan and new subscriber. Thank you!
I hope all is well and I seen a lot of napkin gifts and thank you for sharing. I have subscribed to your channel because it doesn't cost anything to just hit that button.
Thank you! It’s amazing how many beautiful napkins are out there. That’s why I suggest if you’re going to decoupage to join napkin swap groups on Facebook. It’s so much fun to see what other people have in their napkin collection. 😊
As soon as you said that you're left handed i subscribed to your channel because there are so few lefties in the craft world!! LOL 😅 There are so many crafts that are almost impossible to do if you're a lefty, so we have to stick together ❤️ 😄 Love from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia
I create my own paper designs on a gel plate and I often use tissue paper for that, as you can collage with it most successfully. I have used the iron-on method and it works, even with the acrylic paint on my tissue paper prints! You really should give it a try. You would love making gel plate prints for your collage. It is so freeing and you get to be the artist from start to finish. having truly original works to give as gifts. Big hugs from Texas!
I agree with you about the parchment paper instead of plastic wrap. I had a terrible time with that saran wrap way. I tried parchment after watching and it worked! Thank you channel!
I loved this tutorial and have watched several of them. I think you have the best decoupage tutorials on RUclips! I think I will try my luck with using fabric first on a wood shaped piece and then venture into trying napkins. Your items are so beautiful and I'm glad I found your channel. I've been wanting to learn decoupage for awhile and with your helpful videos, I'm going to do it!
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 😊
I like the method you use on putting the glue on first and then let it dry and then use the iron the napkin on and I'm going to try it on my next project. Every video I watch on doing decoupage gives better ideas on how to it and I like your ideas too.
Your process is so easy compared to other videos I’ve watched. Some say to paint the tiles with white chalk paint first so that the napkin has something to adhere to. I see you didn’t do that. Have you ever had any problems since you don’t paint the tiles first? How many top coats of mod Podge did you apply after the napkin was ironed on? And THANK YOU for showing how to treat the tiles for hot mugs😊. You’re the first one to do that from the videos I’ve seen.
I never paint the tiles. By putting a layer of mod podge on and letting it dry, once you iron the napkin on, the heat reactivates the mod podge and the napkin adheres to the tile. I top coat one thin layer of pod podge mainly to make sure the edges are secure. Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching. 😊 Happy crafting!
I’m just getting started on this type of craft I would like to know more. I will look up your videos. I did enjoy this very much. And yes that is beautiful napkins. But napkins are very expensive to buy when you need. Just maybe one or two I have found out.again thank you very much.❤
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
Your tiles look so beautiful. And thank you for your tutorial. I was wondering if I could print out motives on typing paper. This paper is prity thick, that's why I ask. Thank you for answering my question.
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 😊
Thank you so much! I learned a lot and I've been decoupaging for a while! I love the tip for the parchment paper on the Mod Podge lid. Take care- thank you for sharing!
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! 😊
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!
Thank you for a very informative video. I have been making coaster napkins for years. I always have the wrinkles in them. I didn't mind. Thought it looked vintage. But I would like to try some with the iron. Thank you for all of your tips and tricks along the way.
I agree about the wrinkles and have mentioned in a few of my videos not to worry about them. That’s what makes it unique, and quite personally, I think some things look better with wrinkles. Thank you so much for watching. Happy crafting!
Thank you so much for this! I am a new crafter and love these coasters. There are so many techniques it gets overwhelming. This is so easy to follow! I can't wait to try. I've been nervous about messing everything up. 😬
Thank you so much for watching! If you decoupage on ceramic, glass or anything that can get wet, if you mess up, soak it in water and the napkin will come right off. Believe me, I’ve had to start over many times. 😊 Happy crafting!
Such a very informative video. Very novice here. Would the application of applying photos be the same. Thank you! ❤ Btw...new subscriber. So excited to find your channel.
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 😊
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 😊
I’m brand new to this process with napkins and ceramic tiles and would love to get some napkins. BTW,, I’ll I love your multi bird Coaster,, it’s adorable! Thank you for this very informative video!
You were great and so helpful! I am new to this wonderful craft. I started with glass cutting boards using fabric or paper. I am truly interested in the napkin coasters with the iron. I will keep following you. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for your video. I have done and sold a ton of coasters and never knew about this sealant. Also thanks for the tip of "napkin exchange". Love this.
Thank you so much Frida! I’m glad you enjoyed the video, and yes definitely check into napkin swap groups on Facebook. I belong to Peaceangels Napkin & Tissue Paper Swap and Crafty Napkins Swap and Share. So many napkins to choose from. Happy crafting!
Would the travel iron replace the little Cricut mini iron? I want to purchase one or the other, what do you recommend? I thought too that as well as being coasters they can be a trivet?? Beautiful napkins you have, I’m excited to look around now for napkins! Thanks for your informative video!
I’ve heard nothing but good things about the Cricut mini iron. Although the one I have did receive good reviews, I should have invested the extra money for the Cricut. I do trivets also using 6x6 ceramic tiles. They can be used for their intended purpose or as decor. It’s amazing how many beautiful napkins there are. Thank you for watching and happy crafting!
Yes I'm using big thick free floor tiles the size of napkins unfolded and leather feet for 18:54 trivets love the engine spray tip for heat resistance 👍☮️
I absolutely love this video! I thought of doing this earlier and then here you were! Thank you for all info! I've never deco anything but I'm getting excited to learn a new craft! Thanks again and Happy New Year! 😊
I’m new to your channel and I love the way you guide us through each step. I have a travel iron that I thought to use for my crafting of this. Thank you for sharing.
Love your video! Can't wait to try this! Now I have to search online for such beautiful napkins. Can't find lovely napkins you used in shops here. We have only the plain coloured ones. Sigh...
This is when the napkin swap groups come in handy if you only need a few napkins for a project and not a full package. Search napkin swap groups on Facebook. You’ll need to have napkins to swap with but you can start out small and build up. Good luck!
Loved this video, loved the birds...... Finally I found a way to make them non wrinkly.... I am sooooooo Stoked!!! thank you thank You... You find the best Napkins... I really adore the lady and the Birds, Also I am a mermaid Jewelry maker so I have some trinkets that would be great along side my Newly found fabulous Way..... If you could tell me where you found the birds and Lady I would love them ... Sincerely this was the best!!!
Thank you so much for all the kind words. I truly appreciate it. I love those napkins also and those I received through a swap. I always suggest getting into napkin swap groups on Facebook because it’s amazing how many beautiful napkins are out there. And it helps not having to purchase a whole pack when all you need is one or two. Two groups I’m in are Crafty Napkin Swap and Share and Peaceangel’s Napkin & Tissue Paper Swap. I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial. Happy Crafting!
Hi Karen, Thank you so much for watching! I find napkins at stores like Dollar Tree, Ross, Marshall’s, Tuesday Morning, boutiques and even Target and WalMart. I’m also in napkin swapping groups on Facebook. You will need to have a few napkins to start. You would create an album and then look at other peoples albums and if you see something you like, you would message them and ask if they would like to swap. The 2 I’m in are - Crafty Napkins Swap and Share and Peaceangels Napkin & Tissue Paper Swap. I hope this helps!
Jody, I agree with you I love this method. However, may I ask what you do about the rough edges of the tiles. I've been trying to sand off the fitting bumps that are on the edges, but if I'm right, it doesn't look like you do that. How do you smooth the edges. Also when using material, how do you do the corner fold overs.? Any help would be appreciated. Flo
Personally I like the look of the unfinished edges so I don’t do anything to them. I’ve seen others that paint around the edges to add finish to the coaster. For fabric, I would secure the fabric to the sides, then cut the excess at each corner so the ends meet. Almost like wrapping a present. I hope that makes sense and was helpful. Thanks so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊
I've been cutting the triangle of fabric off each corner they ought to be right size thus. Dip finger in mid podge and carefully smooth edges when moist some folks tidy with sanding block or big soft Emery file some of my tiles had grubby edges so I mixed gold acrylic & glitter which looks nice
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421I'm kinda upçycling a house full of stuff so have been cutting triangular thick leather feet out of a stack of rectangles I had. Cut fancy thrift shop leather belt into ovals to disguise/decorate old brand inside lids of decoupage spectacle cases neat on velour...
Oh my gosh Jody, you have no idea how relieved I am to have found you. I have made over 70 coasters and thought I had failed because the mugs would stick and leave a ring so I never gifted them. You are the first person that actually mentioned a curing time!!! I've read the comments below but forgive me, I would love more direction. So after the 2 coats of mod podge, I give it a day and then I sprayed them. OR...do you wait 28 days and THEN spray them. Can you please dumb it down and step by step it for me. You would be a lifesaver.
Hi Kathryn! First of all, I’m so sorry that has happened to you. There’s a lot of work that goes into making coasters and trivets, and I’m sure they are beautiful. I have found success in letting them cure for 28 days then spraying with high heat engine enamel. It’s the mod podge that’s the culprit. Because it’s a glue, heat will reactivate it and make them sticky. But once they cure for the 28 days, they’re good to go. I hope this helps!
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421 Bless you Jody, and thank you so much for your reply. You know I have watched dozens of how-to videos and none of them share the expertise you have. I am encouraged to try again thanks to you. Just wondering with the coasters I have already sprayed / finished...do you think waiting 28 days will make them usable? Or are they ruined because they were sprayed without the lengthy cure time??? Again I am ever sooo thankful for your help.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I truly appreciate it. I would definitely wait the 28 days and try again. If they still stick, I would spray again, let that dry overnight and continue to test for at least a week. I will keep good thoughts that it works. Please let me know.
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421 Thanks once again for taking the time to reply to me Jody. I will cross my fingers and try again in 28 days to retest my original coasters and I will let you know. You're the best!!!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial, thank you! I find napkins at Dollar Tree, grocery stores, Target, WalMart, Ross, Marshall’s and online at Celebrate the Home. I encourage you to join napkin swapping groups on Facebook. I’ve met some wonderful people in these groups and have swapped with ladies as far as Belgium. Welcome! And thanks again for watching!
If you're still interested googling wedding napkins are very lush including marble, roses etc Catering shows big range at great prices....happy gluing👍☮️😀
Hello ma’am I just watched your video what is the brand n name of the sealant spray? I am a artist and I could really take off with this little idea just need to know the sealer. Thank u and not sure when this video was made was it this past Christmas or 2020’s well Happy New year 2022
Hello! I use Rustoleum high heat engine enamel to seal my coasters. It comes in several colors so be sure the cap is clear. The video was made 11 months ago. Thank you so much for watching and much success to you!
JodysSimpletreasures high engine heat where did u purchase that? I am in NY just want to make sure I get the correct one. Really like this idea and I have been thinking of ideas to do w the boxes of left over bathroom tiles I have then I saw this video and I was like “ Very nifty”
I spose I did but hadn't thought it through and sold a few big trivets which I hope didn't stick to people's.dishes lmao NOW I know and will get heat spray
I just came across your video and I am going to try out this method for sure, I have made a few from other videos and to my fail they are very wrinkled. I would be very interested in a few Christmas design napkins if you have any. I work at an elementary school and would love to make this inexpensive gift for co workers.
Hi Michelle, This is my go to method. I hope it works as well for you as it does for me. I’d be glad to send some napkins to you. Please email your address to me at - simpletreasures76@yahoo.com Thank you for watching!
I find napkins at retail stores like Target, Ross, Marshall’s, Walmart and even Dollar Tree. I order online from Celebrate the Home and Amazon. Etsy also has napkins if your looking for singles. Resale stores and boutiques are always good to look at. Then there’s the Facebook napkin swapping groups. I’ve swapped with people all over the world. Hope this helps. Happy crafting 😊
Very informative video thank you. Can i put mod podge on a foam let it dry and iron a canvas on the foam board? Will the foam board melt? Will the canvas print be okay? Thank you for you time.
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 😊
LOL, I should have listened to the rest of your video….I would love to get some napkins to get started!!!, I am so planning on making these cute coasters. Heading to Hoem depot to pick up tiles…Also could you send the link to the clear VHT sealer?
Welcome to the world of decoupage! The sealer I use is Rustoleum high heat engine enamel. It comes in several colors, so make sure the cap is clear. I’d be glad to mail some napkins out to you. Email me your address to - simpletreasures76@yahoo.com Thank you!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I purchased the sealer you reccomended and I'm looking forward to trying it out. I found cork adhesive squares on Amazon. They were $9.99 for 80 squares which is a great deal. I am in love with the bird napkin you used. Do you have info on where i can find them. I would love to receive some napkins from you and I would be willing to swap. Thank you so much
I hope you enjoy decoupage as much as I do. The cork squares are great! The bird napkin was from a swap I did. One of my groups for swapping is Crafty Napkins Swap and Share. You can search the group on Facebook. In order to swap, you need to create an album with your napkins. You don’t need a lot to start, but you must have some to swap. You can look at dollar tree, Walmart, grocery stores, Home Goods, Hobby Lobby even resale stores. Basically any place that sells napkins. You can look online at Amazon, Etsy, napkins2go, Celebrate the Home. If you’d like to send me your address to simpletreasures76@yahoo.com I’d be glad to send you some napkins. Thank you so much for watching and happy crafting!
Hello loved your video Do you put a top layer of Modge Podge on topmof the napkin. Or what dobubuse to make it heat ir waterproof please. I'm new at this Thank you
@@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 😊
I am in love with these napkins!! You did a great job... I am just getting started and will be participating in a vending event in July and would love to make and sell some of these. Could you please send me a few napkins? I have never seen any so pretty like these!
This is such a great video. Thanks so much! I was scrolling through the comments to see if my question on the sealant spray was already asked...it was. But not sure if I am understanding it correctly. After napkin is on the coaster and topcoat of modpodge is applied and is dry, do you wait 24 hrs to spray the heat sealant, and then cure 28 days? Or cure 28 days first, then spray the heat sealant? Thank you! Love the napkins too! Thank you!
Cure for 28 days then spray the sealant. 2 coats, letting dry several hours between coats. Thank you so much for the kind words and watching my video. Happy crafting! 😊
Thanks! Although using the wet plastic wrap way is so useful for things like one of my projects is a mini house shaped shadow box. No way to fit an iron inside it.
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 😊
Thanks for sharing your process, I’m going to try this. I want to make a suggestion regarding the cumbersome use of your little iron that I thought might be helpful. Since you are left handed stand /plug-in the iron on your left side, that way the plug and cord of the iron would no be in your way. Or place/stand it in front of you and use it with the point of the iron facing you. 🙂
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I did end up rearranging my work station to make it easier and more comfortable. I just wish I would have done it prior to recording lol! Thanks so much for watching. Happy crafting 😊
Hi Jody.... hoping I can ask you a question. I did your decopage with iron technique. I was doing it on a smooth board and design was paper. Design went on smooth. Looked fabulous. Several days later, I used Dixey Bell clear top coat on top. It's very similar to Mod Poge. Immediately, my paper design started to bubble up. That really surprized me since it looked quite glued down. Do you have any ideas why that happen? I had trouble smoothing it out. It was a lost project. Thoughts? Molly G
@@mollygruse7134 Hi Molly, I don’t use paper very often but recently I was making gift tags using wood cut outs and card stock. On the first one I made, after it was dry, I put another coat of mod podge on top and same thing happened to me. After that, I didn’t top coat them and have had no problem. Now, once they dry, I just file around the edges to get the excess paper off. I know it’s not the same as your project but I hope it helps. Thanks so much for watching 😊
After doing this method on a tile and wait the necessary period will you be able to use the tile for a potholder on your table. What product do you put over the picture afterwards
@@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 😊
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.
If you pull the table away from the wall and sit with your back to the wall, the iron would be on the left. Would that work for you? I too am a lefty and face same issues. I came back to your video today because I’m refreshing my mind. Getting ready to do this craft with a couple of little girls from our church. Thank you for this.
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 :)
Did you say two coats of Mod Podge to seal? I’ve seen others who say you should seal will varnish. Do you think that’s necessary? Thanks. This was my first time watching you. You are such a sweetie! 😀
Hi Karen, I use one coat of mod podge on the top more to make sure the edges are sealed. I wait at least 28 days for the mod podge to cure then spray with high heat engine enamel. I’ve seen others seal with varnish or just a clear top coat, but I’ve found this to work the best for me. Thank you so much for watching, and also your comment. I truly appreciate it 😊
I am always on the lookout for napkins. Retail, grocery, boutiques, second hand stores along with online companies like Celebrate the Home and Amazon. Facebook has several napkin swapping groups that are a lot of fun to meet new people who also enjoy napkin decoupage. Happy crafting!
Thank you for your video. I followed your instructions step by step. My problem happened when I put on my mod podge after I was done ironing n filing. As I applied my mod podge my napkin bubbled up with wrinkles. What do I do with all the wrinkles? Please help!

You said there was a way to get some sample napkins, How do you do that to practice?@@jodyssimpletreasures4421
I create my own paper designs on a gel plate and I often use tissue paper for that, as you can collage with it most successfully.
I have used the iron-on method and it works, even with the acrylic paint on my tissue paper prints!

Your process is so easy compared to other videos I’ve watched. Some say to paint the tiles with white chalk paint first so that the napkin has something to adhere to. I see you didn’t do that.

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.

Love this idea! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for watching 😊 Happy crafting!
❤thank you , this was great love it.😊
Thank you so much for watching 😊
Thank you so much! I learned a lot and I've been decoupaging for a while! I love the tip for the parchment paper on the Mod Podge lid. Take care- thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for watching! Happy crafting! 😊
another lady above suggests putting Vaseline around the top of your modpodge jar to stop the sticking, great tip !
Is a good idea to sand the tile before applying these Mod Podge.
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! 😊
Thank you so much for sharing
How do you seal it from water
By letting it cure and using the high heat engine enamel as a sealant, I’ve had no problem with water. Thank you so much for watching 😊
This is so cool, I am a binginer and so excited to try this!
Enjoy! It's very addicting 😊 Thank you so much for watching!
Your prints are beautiful! I'm glad you showed the spray can that won't let cups/glasses stick. I have one like that!
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. God bless you always. 💕
Thank you so much for watching!
Very nice tutorial could you use a polyacrylic spray to coat will that work with hot cups? Thank you
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 👍☮️😀
Beautiful
Thanks so much for watching 😊
Thank you for a very informative video. I have been making coaster napkins for years. I always have the wrinkles in them. I didn't mind. Thought it looked vintage. But I would like to try some with the iron. Thank you for all of your tips and tricks along the way.
I agree about the wrinkles and have mentioned in a few of my videos not to worry about them. That’s what makes it unique, and quite personally, I think some things look better with wrinkles. Thank you so much for watching. Happy crafting!
Liked your idea. And the sealant tip was good as I have not had any success with the sealant method that I have tried for my projects.
I hope this one works for you as well as it does for me. Thanks for watching! 😊
These are so very pretty. Have to try this project. TFS 🤣🙏👍
Thank you so much! Happy crafting!
Thank you so much for this! I am a new crafter and love these coasters. There are so many techniques it gets overwhelming. This is so easy to follow! I can't wait to try. I've been nervous about messing everything up. 😬
Thank you so much for watching! If you decoupage on ceramic, glass or anything that can get wet, if you mess up, soak it in water and the napkin will come right off. Believe me, I’ve had to start over many times. 😊 Happy crafting!
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421 oh wow, thanks!!
Thank you for sharing your experience and techniques with us!😊
Thank you so much for watching!
Such a very informative video. Very novice here. Would the application of applying photos be the same. Thank you! ❤
Btw...new subscriber. So excited to find your channel.
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 😊
Thank you for teaching me the heated way! Which lil mini iron did you buy, please?
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. I will try. Really very beautiful. You take care.
Thank you so much! I’m sure yours will be beautiful too!
I’m brand new to this process with napkins and ceramic tiles and would love to get some napkins. BTW,, I’ll I love your multi bird Coaster,, it’s adorable!
Thank you for this very informative video!

I really enjoyed this video, thanks so much for sharing!!!
Hi Donna!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching!
You were great and so helpful! I am new to this wonderful craft. I started with glass cutting boards using fabric or paper. I am truly interested in the napkin coasters with the iron. I will keep following you. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much! I started with glass plates and fabric many years ago as teacher gifts. The possibilities are endless 😊 Happy crafting!
Thank you so much for your video. I have done and sold a ton of coasters and never knew about this sealant. Also thanks for the tip of "napkin exchange". Love this.
Thank you so much Frida! I’m glad you enjoyed the video, and yes definitely check into napkin swap groups on Facebook. I belong to Peaceangels Napkin & Tissue Paper Swap and Crafty Napkins Swap and Share. So many napkins to choose from.
Happy crafting!
What do you use for sealer typically- that is heat resistant for tiles? 😀
Would the travel iron replace the little Cricut mini iron? I want to purchase one or the other, what do you recommend? I thought too that as well as being coasters they can be a trivet?? Beautiful napkins you have, I’m excited to look around now for napkins! Thanks for your informative video!
I’ve heard nothing but good things about the Cricut mini iron. Although the one I have did receive good reviews, I should have invested the extra money for the Cricut. I do trivets also using 6x6 ceramic tiles. They can be used for their intended purpose or as decor. It’s amazing how many beautiful napkins there are. Thank you for watching and happy crafting!
Yes I'm using big thick free floor tiles the size of napkins unfolded and leather feet for 18:54 trivets love the engine spray tip for heat resistance 👍☮️
I had no idea you could do this on a tile! Wow thanks 😊
Thank you for watching! Happy crafting 😊
Simply beautiful!❤❤
Thank you so much!
I absolutely love this video! I thought of doing this earlier and then here you were! Thank you for all info! I've never deco anything but I'm getting excited to learn a new craft! Thanks again and Happy New Year! 😊
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video and hope you like decoupage as much as I do. Happy New Year and happy crafting!
They are so beautiful! Love your tutorial!
Thank you so much for watching!
I tried this year's ago on all mine stuck together 😭 😂 now I know how to keep that from happening. Thank you so much lol.
I hope you will give them another try. 😊 Thank you so much for watching!
I’m new to your channel and I love the way you guide us through each step. I have a travel iron that I thought to use for my crafting of this. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. A travel iron would be the perfect size.
Happy crafting!
Love your video! Can't wait to try this! Now I have to search online for such beautiful napkins. Can't find lovely napkins you used in shops here. We have only the plain coloured ones. Sigh...
This is when the napkin swap groups come in handy if you only need a few napkins for a project and not a full package. Search napkin swap groups on Facebook. You’ll need to have napkins to swap with but you can start out small and build up. Good luck!
Yep me too I'm left handed and my daughter and son and one granddaughter 🎉
Welcome my fellow lefty 😊 Thank you for watching!
Loved this video, loved the birds...... Finally I found a way to make them non wrinkly.... I am sooooooo Stoked!!! thank you thank You... You find the best Napkins... I really adore the lady and the Birds, Also I am a mermaid Jewelry maker so I have some trinkets that would be great along side my Newly found fabulous Way..... If you could tell me where you found the birds and Lady I would love them ... Sincerely this was the best!!!
Thank you so much for all the kind words. I truly appreciate it. I love those napkins also and those I received through a swap. I always suggest getting into napkin swap groups on Facebook because it’s amazing how many beautiful napkins are out there. And it helps not having to purchase a whole pack when all you need is one or two. Two groups I’m in are Crafty Napkin Swap and Share and Peaceangel’s Napkin & Tissue Paper Swap. I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial. Happy Crafting!
Hi,
I have had the pleasure of watching your videos. Please enlighten me to where I may obtain printed napkins.
Hi Karen,
Thank you so much for watching! I find napkins at stores like Dollar Tree, Ross, Marshall’s, Tuesday Morning, boutiques and even Target and WalMart. I’m also in napkin swapping groups on Facebook. You will need to have a few napkins to start. You would create an album and then look at other peoples albums and if you see something you like, you would message them and ask if they would like to swap. The 2 I’m in are - Crafty Napkins Swap and Share and Peaceangels Napkin & Tissue Paper Swap.
I hope this helps!
Jody, I agree with you I love this method. However, may I ask what you do about the rough edges of the tiles. I've been trying to sand off the fitting bumps that are on the edges, but if I'm right, it doesn't look like you do that. How do you smooth the edges. Also when using material, how do you do the corner fold overs.? Any help would be appreciated. Flo
Personally I like the look of the unfinished edges so I don’t do anything to them. I’ve seen others that paint around the edges to add finish to the coaster. For fabric, I would secure the fabric to the sides, then cut the excess at each corner so the ends meet. Almost like wrapping a present. I hope that makes sense and was helpful. Thanks so much for watching! Happy crafting 😊
I've been cutting the triangle of fabric off each corner they ought to be right size thus. Dip finger in mid podge and carefully smooth edges when moist some folks tidy with sanding block or big soft Emery file some of my tiles had grubby edges so I mixed gold acrylic & glitter which looks nice
HI! thank you for the video. I assume by now you know you can buy 4x4 cork pieces for the bottom. Easy to use with a peel off back and inexpensive
Thank you so much for watching! Yes, I use those also. Quick and easy 😊
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421I'm kinda upçycling a house full of stuff so have been cutting triangular thick leather feet out of a stack of rectangles I had. Cut fancy thrift shop leather belt into ovals to disguise/decorate old brand inside lids of decoupage spectacle cases neat on velour...
@@PortraitoftheArtistasanOldDog8 That sounds very interesting!
Oh my gosh Jody, you have no idea how relieved I am to have found you. I have made over 70 coasters and thought I had failed because the mugs would stick and leave a ring so I never gifted them. You are the first person that actually mentioned a curing time!!! I've read the comments below but forgive me, I would love more direction. So after the 2 coats of mod podge, I give it a day and then I sprayed them. OR...do you wait 28 days and THEN spray them. Can you please dumb it down and step by step it for me. You would be a lifesaver.
Hi Kathryn!
First of all, I’m so sorry that has happened to you. There’s a lot of work that goes into making coasters and trivets, and I’m sure they are beautiful.
I have found success in letting them cure for 28 days then spraying with high heat engine enamel. It’s the mod podge that’s the culprit. Because it’s a glue, heat will reactivate it and make them sticky. But once they cure for the 28 days, they’re good to go.
I hope this helps!
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421 Bless you Jody, and thank you so much for your reply. You know I have watched dozens of how-to videos and none of them share the expertise you have. I am encouraged to try again thanks to you. Just wondering with the coasters I have already sprayed / finished...do you think waiting 28 days will make them usable? Or are they ruined because they were sprayed without the lengthy cure time??? Again I am ever sooo thankful for your help.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I truly appreciate it.
I would definitely wait the 28 days and try again. If they still stick, I would spray again, let that dry overnight and continue to test for at least a week. I will keep good thoughts that it works. Please let me know.
@@jodyssimpletreasures4421 Thanks once again for taking the time to reply to me Jody. I will cross my fingers and try again in 28 days to retest my original coasters and I will let you know. You're the best!!!
Fingers crossed it works for you! Please let me know! 😊
Wow! I am a newbie to decoupaging!! Love love love it!!!. Is there a resource for napkin shopping?
I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial, thank you! I find napkins at Dollar Tree, grocery stores, Target, WalMart, Ross, Marshall’s and online at Celebrate the Home. I encourage you to join napkin swapping groups on Facebook. I’ve met some wonderful people in these groups and have swapped with ladies as far as Belgium. Welcome! And thanks again for watching!
If you're still interested googling wedding napkins are very lush including marble, roses etc Catering shows big range at great prices....happy gluing👍☮️😀
Hello ma’am I just watched your video what is the brand n name of the sealant spray? I am a artist and I could really take off with this little idea just need to know the sealer. Thank u and not sure when this video was made was it this past Christmas or 2020’s well Happy New year 2022
Hello!
I use Rustoleum high heat engine enamel to seal my coasters. It comes in several colors so be sure the cap is clear. The video was made 11 months ago. Thank you so much for watching and much success to you!
JodysSimpletreasures high engine heat where did u purchase that? I am in NY just want to make sure I get the correct one. Really like this idea and I have been thinking of ideas to do w the boxes of left over bathroom tiles I have then I saw this video and I was like “
Very nifty”
Any auto parts store will have it.
JodysSimpletreasures thank u so much, I have a tip in the Ironing I use a Cricut Easy press Mini, it’s amazing it’s both leg and right lol. Stay safe.
I have the Cricut Mini Press on my wishlist 😊.
Wow! I didn’t know mod podge was heat activated. Very nice. 😊💖
Thank you for watching!
I spose I did but hadn't thought it through and sold a few big trivets which I hope didn't stick to people's.dishes lmao NOW I know and will get heat spray
I just came across your video and I am going to try out this method for sure, I have made a few from other videos and to my fail they are very wrinkled. I would be very interested in a few Christmas design napkins if you have any. I work at an elementary school and would love to make this inexpensive gift for co workers.
Hi Michelle,
This is my go to method. I hope it works as well for you as it does for me. I’d be glad to send some napkins to you. Please email your address to me at - simpletreasures76@yahoo.com
Thank you for watching!
Just found your video I’m just learning and was wondering where you get the beautiful napkins.
I find napkins at retail stores like Target, Ross, Marshall’s, Walmart and even Dollar Tree. I order online from Celebrate the Home and Amazon. Etsy also has napkins if your looking for singles. Resale stores and boutiques are always good to look at. Then there’s the Facebook napkin swapping groups. I’ve swapped with people all over the world. Hope this helps. Happy crafting 😊
Hi! Thank you for your video. I'm planning to use my regular iron on a hall tree. Should I use full heat?
Hi!
Always use a medium setting and no steam. Good luck! Thanks for watching!
Very informative video thank you. Can i put mod podge on a foam let it dry and iron a canvas on the foam board? Will the foam board melt? Will the canvas print be okay? Thank you for you time.
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 😊
LOL, I should have listened to the rest of your video….I would love to get some napkins to get started!!!, I am so planning on making these cute coasters. Heading to Hoem depot to pick up tiles…Also could you send the link to the clear VHT sealer?
Welcome to the world of decoupage! The sealer I use is Rustoleum high heat engine enamel. It comes in several colors, so make sure the cap is clear. I’d be glad to mail some napkins out to you. Email me your address to - simpletreasures76@yahoo.com
Thank you!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I purchased the sealer you reccomended and I'm looking forward to trying it out. I found cork adhesive squares on Amazon. They were $9.99 for 80 squares which is a great deal. I am in love with the bird napkin you used. Do you have info on where i can find them. I would love to receive some napkins from you and I would be willing to swap. Thank you so much
I hope you enjoy decoupage as much as I do. The cork squares are great! The bird napkin was from a swap I did. One of my groups for swapping is Crafty Napkins Swap and Share. You can search the group on Facebook. In order to swap, you need to create an album with your napkins. You don’t need a lot to start, but you must have some to swap. You can look at dollar tree, Walmart, grocery stores, Home Goods, Hobby Lobby even resale stores. Basically any place that sells napkins. You can look online at Amazon, Etsy, napkins2go, Celebrate the Home. If you’d like to send me your address to simpletreasures76@yahoo.com I’d be glad to send you some napkins.
Thank you so much for watching and happy crafting!
Hello loved your video
Do you put a top layer of Modge Podge on topmof the napkin.
Or what dobubuse to make it heat ir waterproof please. I'm new at this
Thank you
@@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 😊
I am in love with these napkins!! You did a great job... I am just getting started and will be participating in a vending event in July and would love to make and sell some of these. Could you please send me a few napkins? I have never seen any so pretty like these!
I’d be glad to! Please email me your information at - simpletreasures76@yahoo.com
Thanks so much for watching!
This is such a great video. Thanks so much! I was scrolling through the comments to see if my question on the sealant spray was already asked...it was. But not sure if I am understanding it correctly. After napkin is on the coaster and topcoat of modpodge is applied and is dry, do you wait 24 hrs to spray the heat sealant, and then cure 28 days? Or cure 28 days first, then spray the heat sealant? Thank you! Love the napkins too! Thank you!
Cure for 28 days then spray the sealant. 2 coats, letting dry several hours between coats. Thank you so much for the kind words and watching my video. Happy crafting! 😊
Thanks! Although using the wet plastic wrap way is so useful for things like one of my projects is a mini house shaped shadow box. No way to fit an iron inside it.
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 😊
Thanks for sharing your process, I’m going to try this. I want to make a suggestion regarding the cumbersome use of your little iron that I thought might be helpful. Since you are left handed stand /plug-in the iron on your left side, that way the plug and cord of the iron would no be in your way. Or place/stand it in front of you and use it with the point of the iron facing you. 🙂
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I did end up rearranging my work station to make it easier and more comfortable. I just wish I would have done it prior to recording lol! Thanks so much for watching. Happy crafting 😊
Hi Jody.... hoping I can ask you a question. I did your decopage with iron technique. I was doing it on a smooth board and design was paper. Design went on smooth. Looked fabulous. Several days later, I used Dixey Bell clear top coat on top. It's very similar to Mod Poge. Immediately, my paper design started to bubble up. That really surprized me since it looked quite glued down. Do you have any ideas why that happen? I had trouble smoothing it out. It was a lost project. Thoughts?
Molly G
@@mollygruse7134 Hi Molly, I don’t use paper very often but recently I was making gift tags using wood cut outs and card stock. On the first one I made, after it was dry, I put another coat of mod podge on top and same thing happened to me. After that, I didn’t top coat them and have had no problem. Now, once they dry, I just file around the edges to get the excess paper off. I know it’s not the same as your project but I hope it helps.
Thanks so much for watching 😊
After doing this method on a tile and wait the necessary period will you be able to use the tile for a potholder on your table.
What product do you put over the picture afterwards
@@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 😊
Thank you so much for your video. Where did you find that lovely napkin?
Thank you for watching! This was a swapped napkin from one of my Facebook groups. It’s amazing how many beautiful napkins there are.
Hi. Do you always only put one layer of mod podge on the serviette, marerial or whatecer you use? Regards
Yes, I apply a light layer of mod podge especially to secure the edges. Thank you so much for watching 😊
When do you seal the coaster with the high heat gloss sealer . thank you.
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.
If you pull the table away from the wall and sit with your back to the wall, the iron would be on the left. Would that work for you? I too am a lefty and face same issues. I came back to your video today because I’m refreshing my mind. Getting ready to do this craft with a couple of little girls from our church. Thank you for this.
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 :)
Did you say two coats of Mod Podge to seal? I’ve seen others who say you should seal will varnish. Do you think that’s necessary? Thanks. This was my first time watching you. You are such a sweetie! 😀
Hi Karen,
I use one coat of mod podge on the top more to make sure the edges are sealed. I wait at least 28 days for the mod podge to cure then spray with high heat engine enamel. I’ve seen others seal with varnish or just a clear top coat, but I’ve found this to work the best for me.
Thank you so much for watching, and also your comment. I truly appreciate it 😊
I probably missed it, but when do you apply the heat spray? Thanks so much for sharing your technique!
I spray it near the end of the 28 day cure time. But you can spray it anytime after the mod podge is completely dry. Thank you so much for watching!
Jody, could you tell me where you get that protective covering. I've checked Michaels, they don't carry it. Thanks & Happy New Year.
Hi! The sealer can be found at auto parts stores. It’s clear high heat engine enamel.
Happy New Year to you also! 😊
Where do u get the beautiful napkins
I am always on the lookout for napkins. Retail, grocery, boutiques, second hand stores along with online companies like Celebrate the Home and Amazon. Facebook has several napkin swapping groups that are a lot of fun to meet new people who also enjoy napkin decoupage. Happy crafting!
Thank you for your video. I followed your instructions step by step. My problem happened when I put on my mod podge after I was done ironing n filing. As I applied my mod podge my napkin bubbled up with wrinkles. What do I do with all the wrinkles? Please help!
When that happens, I iron a second time. That should fix it. Hope this helps 😊
Thank you for the suggestion. I’m in the process of trying this right now. Do these wrinkles always happen or did I do something wrong?
It happens to me from time to time also. Good luck. I hope ironing a second time works for you 😊
Check into silco or cilco however it's spelled, craft or small irons they have Alot of left-handed stuff. Hope it helps. Great video thx
Thank you! I’ve learned to live in a right handed world but every now and then it’s a little challenging 😊. Happy crafting!
Hello, can I do the same process with cement coaster???
Yes, you can. Depending on the color of the coaster, you might need to paint it white first though.
Thanks for watching! Happy crafting 😊
What to use instead of parchment paper??
With the iron on method, parchment paper is the only thing that will not stick to the napkin.
Thanks so much for watching 😊
