Decoupage Dollar Tree Glass Cutting Board with a Paper Napkin | IRON-ON Decoupage DIY Technique |

Here’s another quick and easy decoupage DIY! In this DIY I’ll be decoupaging on glass cutting boards that I purchased from The Dollar Tree! I will demo several techniques including reverse decoupage AND the ‘iron-on’ method. These two techniques makes this project so much fun and so easy! You will be creating beautiful glass cutting boards in no time!
You’ll need some decorative napkins (I get mine from Vippies Designs) glass cutting boards from The Dollar Tree and other readily available crafting supplies, like: brushes, Mod Podge, chalk paint, nail file, alcohol wipes and acrylic sealant! I’ll also introduce you to my newest crafting tool, a small craft iron by Cricket! But you can also use a household iron to do this project.
These cutting boards are fun to make, great gifts and a fantastic project for craft nights with your friends!
These cutting boards are beautiful decor but they can also be used!
However they do need special care. Here’s some important instructions and other information : no dishwasher, no microwave, wipe the top after use and dry. Do not submerge in water and use only as labeled “cutting board”!

I have been looking for instructions on “How to do a transfer of a photo onto the inside of a white Corelle plate?” But I’m having trouble finding anything close to what I’m trying to do. I’m trying to decoupage a picture of my twin boys wedding pictures with the dates to give them for their 10th Anniversary and the other son’s 25th Anniversary. Do you have any information on how I can accomplish this task for them?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi! Sorry I do not have info on photo transfer. I think Plaid has a transfer MP formula.

[@careyberend6043]

I have made four of these cutting boards and they turned out really beautiful. I’m having a problem on the back side, though. I’m getting bubbles on the back side. It doesn’t affect how it looks on the front but I’m wondering what I’m doing to cause this. Too much decoupage glue? Too much or too little ironing? I’m using a regular size iron on high heat with no steam. If you have any suggestions I’d appreciate it. Thank you!

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Bubbles on the back..did you put a sealant on the back or Mod Podge both can cause bubbles. Also when you iron you have to make sure the entire glass is heated enough to melt the glue so when you iron go slow. You can try to iron again. Let me know if that helps Joan

[@CatherineJensen-m8p]

Can you put those in the dishwasher

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Mod Podge has a dishwasher safe formula. Read the label with manufacturers suggestions. I hand wash- Joan

[@empea7977]

Hi, what's the reason please for 2 coats of mod podge instead of 1 for iron on technique?

[@jazz901]

Thank you again. I watch and use all your tutorials. I have at least 10 bottles of Waverly "chalk" paint like you show in your video. But then I noticed under "Chalk" it says it is an acrylic paint. Sure is confusing for consumer. Is it chalk paint or acrylic paint? That makes a big difference. So you're saying it's ok to use when a chalk paint is needed? Like for your glass plates or for painting jars or the cutting board above?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Chalk paint is acrylic paint. It has an additive that makes it have a slight texture and matte finish. You can make your own by googling homemade chalk paint. Most start with acrylic white paint. - Joan

[@jazz901]

@@JoanMarieDomino Thk you. I read the label again and I had taken each line separately. "No Prep" "Acrylic Paint". But once I read again I can see "no prep acrylic paint". Now it makes sense. But now I have another question. I just finished ironing my glass cutting plate you demonstrated above. I noticed when I unwrapped 2 of the glass plates from the Dollar Tree that one was smooth on both sides. I thought that was weird, but I felt it could be my practice plate. Once I completed ironing and flipped it over, I saw all the brush marks from the 2 coats of decoupage glue. I was hoping to give as gifts but I don't like seeing the glue strokes. Does it show on the glass plate that is textured on one side too? The glass plate turned out beautiful other than that and I suspect I can't cut on it so I'll just use it as plate to set wine on or a flower vase. Thanks again for all your "beginner" instructions. As you can tell, I'm a beginner at decoupaging. I make cards and jewelry but I want to branch out and your videos have helped me so much.

[@JoanMarieDomino]

I noticed the cutting boards are smooth on both sides now too. Heavy layers of MP will show streaks especially gloss. Use matte and thin layers. Sometimes there’s still streaks. Just keep at it! - Joan

[@karenphilpott9668]

I tried this but after ironing napkin I still see brush strokes of mod podge? Is that normal? What can I do?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Too thick of a coat of Mod Podge. Thin layers. Also darker color napkins will show the brush strokes even more. Also try different brushes. I find really soft brushes work the best. Take your time, practice and be patient with yourself. 🙂 Joan

[@volleybowl55]

These are absolutely gorgeous. Can you apply the napkins just using mod podge and not using the craft iron?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi! Yes you can decoupage without a craft iron, you can use a household iron on medium cotton and no steam. You still need to put the parchment on top before you iron. You can also put the napkin on the glass without the iron but you must do it while the glue is still wet. Then carefully place the top layer of the napkin on top of the glue and smooth it out. I hope that helps. - Joan 🙂❤️

[@oneword381]

Your projects are so pretty. You have a great eye for placement of the napkins. When you use spray glitter, do you spray it on before decoupaging the napkin?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi! I put the glitter spray on first (or extreme glitter Mod Podge) and let dry. Then I do a couple coats of Mod Podge on top of the glitter spray and let each coat dry before I do the ‘iron-on’. If you are using the extreme glitter MP for the glitter effect (NOT the spray) then just add one coat of regular MP on top of the extreme glitter MP. Then you are ready to adhere the napkin. Hope that makes sense. Thank you for the kind words, they mean so much to me! - Joan ❤️🙂

Question.... when would you apply the krypton glitter spray or mod podge extreme glitter.?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

I like to spray Krylon glitter first. You can use the extreme glitter first as well.

[@lisaledonne144]

I’m so embarrassed because I ask so many questions. Do you a bristle brush or a sponge brush? How many brushes do you have? I rinse mine as soon as putting on the glue so because they’re wet I don’t use them. Final question. I put on my second coat and it got lumpy and glue turned into little balls. Why? Bless you for your patience!!

[@JoanMarieDomino]

For the glass cutting board...I used a round sponge to apply the paint. I have many many brushes, I like angle brushes. I wash my brushes right away with warm soapy water. I don’t know why it got lumpy and you got glue balls. Follow the video step by step for best results, don’t skip over anything! Good luck! Joan

[@shirleybarron9995]

Love watching You! I have tried this and when I put on the mod podge (after the napkin), the glue turned into a white finish? Will this go away after I seal it?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Diane! Has it gone away yet? Sounds like you put a lot of MP on top of the napkin. Too much MP and it won’t dry clear if it hasn’t by now. Did you re-iron? Paint? Could be other reasons. Watch the video again is really my best answer because I don’t have your cutting board in front of me. 🙂 Joan

[@careyberend6043]

I love this decoupage cutting board and want to try it. I bought a round cutting board at Dollar Tree with a diameter of almost 8 inches. I’m having a hard time finding a napkin with an image size big enough to cover the whole glass. I looked on Vippies and couldn’t find the one you used. Can you give me some advice on finding napkins with a full image when opened? Thank you!

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Carey! I made this video several years ago so I think some of the ones I used have sold out. Guest size napkins are good for the cutting boards, Vippies has a bunch under floral. The napkins are usually noted if it opens to a complete picture, which is what you need. You can also use printed gift tissue, paper table cloths and fabric. I have another video for using fabric instead of napkins. Also regular paper will also work. Hope that helps! Joan 🙂

[@jeannewarrick1106]

Thank you for your video it was very reaffirming and helpful. I decided to paint the back of my of my glass cutting board using the white Waverly chalk paint, just as you described. But I'm noticing cracking in the paint along the edges of the glass cutting board. Do you have any suggestions on how to prevent that?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Kathleen! Here are some possibilities Waverly is a thicker chalk paint and may crackle. Mod Podge needs at least a couple days to dry before the paint and this is a common occurrence. Instead of putting MP on before you paint use a light coat of a sealant like Rustoleum or DuraClear. Let that dry before you paint. The sealant will give you the barrier you need before you paint. Good luck. 🙂

I want to add a photo to a glass cutting board as a gift, should I use the photo paper or use a inkjet copy of the photo?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi! The same thing happened to me. You have to give a lot of time for each layer to dry or the paint will crackle. If you put a top coat of Mod Podge before you paint give it at least a few days before you paint. In the meantime if you want you can soak off the napkin and try again. Warm soapy water, soak and scrub. The napkin should come off. It you put a sealant on now it will be harder to remove. Sorry this happened to you and I hope this tip will prevent that from happening again and you’ll make a bunch more (I mean, they are a dollar!!, lol) Let me know Malini! - Joan 🙂

Hi! I love your channel. Which side of the napkins faces the glass? The good side or the paler side ?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Lisa! The napkin goes upside down so when you flip over the cutting board it is right side up. This is a very important step so please refer to the video! - Joan 🙂

[@nancygriest2425]

Love this. So want to do this for gifts. Thank you for sharing. ❤

Please do tutorial glass hot pod trivet

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi! I have no plans on doing a trivet because I haven’t found a safe enough sealant. Maybe resin but I don’t work with resin. Sorry 😕Joan

[@saipranavkitchen2355]

@@JoanMarieDomino thank you for reply

[@joykahler]

I love all your videos. I have made several of these but when i chalk paint it bubbles up. What am i doing wrong?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Too wet. Make sure everything is completely dry before putting any paint on top. Apply thin coat with a sponge pouncer not a brush.

Thank you!! Love your creations 🤗 Just subbed 🙌

[@valeriehofmann2615]

You wouldn't want to use it for a hot pot. As it may activate the glue

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Absolutely , it is marked as a cutting board and should only be used as marked. 🙂

[@TheTinybubbles1]

what size napkins would you use for this thank you love this idea

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Elizabeth! I use lunch size ! - 🙂 Joan

[@vinematzke8422]

So glad I found this tutorial! I love the decoupage look, but hate the messy procedure. Your way is non-messy and easy! Love them all...beautiful!

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Thank you and the less messy works for sure! 👍🙂- Joan

Do you iron over the little tabs that are in the back or do you take them off?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

They are removed. Here’s the complete step-by-step tutorial - Joan kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5uzo6WGrp2efqMsi=GX0YOGbT_oqEk4U0

This so beautiful great idea for me to learn xx

[@Ruthysleung]

Hi, Can I decoupage photos or words printed by Laser printer? Thanks.

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Ruth! Yes you can definitely use a laser printer! A laser copy is waterproof so it will not smudge or run! - Joan 🙂

[@beckymoosbrugger9240]

Are these waterproof for cleaning?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Becky! I put instructions for their care in the video so they can be used and wiped clean. 🙂- Joan

[@mrsdizi1234]

Will this work with designer paper? cardstock

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi! I think paper would work but not card stock, it’s too thick. If you want to use card stock you will need to use a different adhesive. - Joan

[@beckymoosbrugger9240]

would it ruin it to put 2 coats of Modge Podge on at the end?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Mod Podge is not waterproof

[@caroltash5769]

Just wondering if anyone has tried this technique with cardstock?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Carol! I saw your question on my FB page and I hope our group can give you some insight! - Joan 🙂

[@sandradempsey4648]

I'm looking forward to giving this a try. I have once question; do you put the varnish on the back only or both the back and front?

[@JoanMarieDomino]

Hi Sandra! Just the back! Thanks for watching! - Joan 🙂

[@careyberend6043]

Thanks so much! I looked on Vippies and now I see where it says it opens to a complete picture on some of the napkins. Thanks for the other ideas too. Love your videos! Carey
