one thing I have found with the flat canvas, its good when they do separate like that, after I decorate/paint/decoupage, I cut the canvas off the cardboard backing, then seal it, then you can actually use it like fabric and make really cool totes and such, just a happy accident I came across while painting.

What did you use to file the edges of the overhang on the bottle? I’m guessing sandpaper or a nail file? ..or are those too scratchy and harsh?
@patioelf2 жыл бұрын
I tend to always use nail files, they fit everywhere....I also like that they have fine medium and coarse files just like sand paper.

I asked you about this in 2017. Here's what works best for me. I use Mod Podge to apply, and when dry I literally dust the decal area with a light mist of clear acrylic spray and that completely seals it and stops all wrinkling and bubbles from applying a top wet coat. After that is dry, you then apply more Mod Podge or whatever you like on top. Easier and faster.

Great video. Any time your canvas or flat surface warps due to heat, spray or wipe the back with a very small amount of water. For instance, if you use a rag, just barely dampen it. Then turn the object over, and it will warp the other way until it’s straight.
