Photo Canvas Collage How-To

[@daydreamer6030]

hi love this ...what is the spay glue u use ......thanks

[@ninahalstead6497]

couldn't you put a layer of mod podge on the paint instead of the bond spray??? place photos on the mod podge canvas and then when dry and all bubbles out put another layer of the mod podge over the photos and canvas... would all of this work???

[@charlescormier3893]

i m going to do that with baby photos for my brother

[@jukes243]

Great idea. Want to do one with postcards of the southwest. Thanks! .

[@cosmicbliss9926]

Love this! I have some used canvas paintings that I want to revamp. I’m going to paint over it and use this method . Thanks for the inspiration! Also, beautiful shots🌸

[@iloveejbgssnoopy]

how do you get rid of streaks that show on the photos when you put the mod podge that happens to me.

[@yolandabranner6200]

Did you use regular photo paper or were your . Pictures printed on other type of paper. Really love your ideas

[@MooreMooreLiving]

For this video, we used photo paper. But we have used regular paper that we printed with an inkjet. Just make sure to let it dry for 24 hours

[@DiamondcatolicoB09]

It looks easy to do, I'm planning to make a family photo collage and I don't know where to start. I was think to print it in store or do myself.

[@leticiagalvan4481]

How many coats of modge podge did you use ?

[@patricialovett87]

I’m looking forward to doing this with my 11 year old niece we have been crafting since sh3 was like 2 think this will be a fun project. Can’t wait.

[@dannitipton1814]

What size pictures did you use. I assume they were 4x6?

[@MooreMooreLiving]

Yes they were 4 inches by 6 inches. What could be fun is to mix different sizes of photos

[@rubygonzalez1254]

Love this, the brush stroke idea is genius. Do you think Mod Podge would work over a poster without it wrinkling? Thanks for sharing the tutorial.

[@MooreMooreLiving]

It might be best to first stuck the poster down to the canvas with some double sided tape. And then do a very light layer of Mod Podge on top of the poster to seal it. Once that dries, you can go back and add a second layer of you choose. Let us know how it goes!

[@KissHope]

Ok thanks for the suggestion.

[@patricialovett87]

[@MooreMooreLiving]

This would be a fun project to do with kids! Hope it turns out great!

[@jenferraric]

What a great idea, thanks for sharing, for sure I will try to do this project myself

[@MooreMooreLiving]

We hope your project turned out great!

[@juliedugan3214]

Can you use the Mod Podge as the glue for the pics. ?

[@MooreMooreLiving]

+Julie Dugan Yes, that is exactly what we used to glue the pictures down. Worked great!

[@luvbug5833]

Hello, this looks great. I am thinking of making one for my wedding, a picture canvas and have my guest sign around the picture. What is the spray you sprayed before placing the pictures??? And after the mod podge is brushed on will they still be able to sign it??? your response would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

[@MooreMooreLiving]

I used Elmer's Spray Craft Adhesive to mount the photos, then used decoupage to brush over the photos. Good luck with your project!

[@sarawoolard2725]

awesome!

[@tabassumsaleem9369]

😘😘😘😘😘😘😘love you not u. Only Your ideas....... okay

[@MGHollyChick]

Can u list all your products on how to do that n were u can find them .. and also ... can you just leave the white stuff on.? Then doing the details.... ????

[@donnahubler881]

Loved it!! you are a very good teacher. I say "Modge Podge" too ever since I've known about the product in the 1980's. How would you clean something like this after it has been hanging a while? Also, can you use color laser prints since I have a Cannon color laser printer? Thanks!!! Awesome!!!

[@MooreMooreLiving]

We use just a dry microfiber cloth on the piece. Anything wet may reactivate the glue. Laser prints would probably be better than ink jet since there is no ink to smear with a laser printer. Give it a try!

[@MooreMooreLiving]

I used 16" x 20" canvases, Modge Podge Gloss, and Elmer's Spray Adhesive from Michael's. You can also find these at AC Moore, Pat Catan's, and Crafts 2000. The photos were taken in Israel and then printed from Shutterfly. The white stuff is the Modge Podge. It dries clear in about 30 minutes. You use the brush to do the detailing during the application of the Modge Podge. Just follow the lines of your photo

[@breakofdawn3821]

notefolds thank you

[@rosannapalacios5598]

Very beautiful, would like to see clearly what you use.

[@patriciahines7127]

Beautiful . Thanks 😊 for the idea .

[@aliciaolguin1739]

does it have to be photography can it be printed pictures ?

[@Ladybug2k]

Very nice

[@sarmermaid9718]

Love it.

[@divi..7618]

Can u mention the name of glue u used here

[@hortensiamontanez8615]

Thank you! I can’t wait to try it!!

[@jasnty]

This is a really great idea, looks so easy. I think I will try this.

[@rona8684]

That's so neat. Love it✊

[@kittyanne0]

Did you have to pretreatment the photos? Or is the mod.podge photo paper safe?

[@MooreMooreLiving]

+Kat Lawler The photos were printed on normal photo paper. We did not pretreat them. Good luck with your project!

[@KathrynwardLvn]

I have a large burlap canvas. How do you think this will work on that medium?

[@MooreMooreLiving]

With the larger thread of the burlap, the photos may not lay as nicely and blend with the fabric. Our canvas was primed duck canvas. If you try it with the burlap, let us know how it goes!

[@KathrynwardLvn]

I'm going to give it a shot! I'll keep you posted!

[@musarratshehzade3529]

Superb u r great

[@deb8911]

Do you need the craft bond?

[@MLMLW]

What type of Mod Podge did you use? Clear, glossy, matte? Thank you! The project is beautiful.

[@MooreMooreLiving]

+MLMLW We used glossy because it makes the brush lines stand out

[@MLMLW]

Ok, thank you very much! :)

[@ottawadigs]

where do you buy your acrylic paint?

[@MooreMooreLiving]

We bought it at Michael's Craft Store. They usually have great sales on paint!

[@ottawadigs]

notefolds thank you!

[@libbyadams7631]

Walmart, Dollar General, etc

[@emjay7590]

Are these prints from a home inkjet printer onto photo paper?

[@MooreMooreLiving]

Yes you can use an inkjet printer. Just be sure to let the photos dry completely and then lightly brush over them with the Mod Podge. Hope your project turns out great!

[@osobhersi8724]

Could we use glue instead of the mod podge or do we need it

[@MooreMooreLiving]

+Osob Hersi You might be able to use glue, as long as it will dry clear. We would recommend trying it on a small sample first

[@emjay7590]

It's pronounced MOD Podge. Not Modge Podge. ☺️

[@ZoMbiE8283]

Omg I thought I was the only one that was getting annoyed at that lol
