I did make the blocks and the frames. Yes, I decoupaged paper to both. First, paint your wood and allow it to dry. Then, brush a layer of mod podge (a mixture of glue and water) over the painted layer and allow to dry. Next, brush an additional layer (covering every inch) just on the side you wish to display your paper and place your paper. If you are super annal at this point you can avoid problems. Make sure to press every inch of the paper onto the wood avoiding air pockets. Finally, brush a final layer of mod podge over the paper and allow to dry. If bubbles appear you can try and crease them out with your fingers. Laying your wood art piece on a flat surface with heavy objects resting on top will help eliminate bubbles. You will have better results if you use patterned paper as it seems to hide more flaws. Have fun!Creative Stirringshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442587905357437673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535411075275321156.post-31598419787193905932010-01-05T22:01:34.094-05:002010-01-05T22:01:34.094-05:00Great idea!
