Suggestions and Ideas for This Challenge

You don’t *have* to color the wooden white, nonetheless, it makes the colours of the serviette pop. It’s additionally simple to do, so I at all times do it. You should use spray paint, however craft paint is cheaper and simply as quick with a curler.

Use a primary components of Mod Podge. The end is beneath the serviette, so it doesn’t matter which one since you received’t see it. I like to recommend Gloss, Matte, or Satin.

I didn’t seal the serviette on high with Mod Podge. You may, nevertheless it would possibly wrinkle. If it does, you may re-iron it (use the parchment paper once more). An alternative choice is to make use of a transparent acrylic sealer on high (spray). Apply after the serviette units after which let dry.

If you happen to use glitter paint, I extremely suggest utilizing a spouncer. A brush simply strikes the glitter particles round whereas a small foam spouncer makes it simpler to “place” the paint.
