[@Jrsygrl115]

Great guide ty! Got a handful of trays and wanted to Deco them and use resin but haven't used resin before, you made it look easy

[@RADCreativeArt]

You’ll do an excellent job I have no doubt 👍🏻🤩

[@rivkakirshberg9994]

Thank you Sherry!! I rarely get comments on the decoupage crafts. It’s so much fun to do! Be sure to check out the Christmas cardinal wall plaque video for some gift ideas! ☺️

Good video! Wish I could make this on my own channel, that's why you earned a new subscriber and a fan. Keep doing this, the algorithm will treat you right ASAP! Greetings from Denmark my friend

[@RADCreativeArt]

Greetings to you as well! Thank you for the support and subscription to my channel. I really don’t know much about the algorithms, but I’ll trust your word on this. Stayed tuned for more videos this weekend! 🤘☮️☯️👍🏻

[@dswatik99]

love it but got a few questions.... did you put modge podge over the napkin once you heat set it into the tray? did you use all of the resin in those 2 bottle? meaning 4ounces of each bottle for the tray? the deco on sides of tray is that a stencil? where did you get the feet hobby lobby?

[@RADCreativeArt]

The video shows not to put any Modge Podge or other varnish if adding resin. Only if you choose to not use resin. Only use half of each bottle, you only want the resin to cover the napkin and edges of the wood. The video shows this part at the end. 👍🏻😊

Will the iron work with thicker paper?

[@RADCreativeArt]

Yes it will, I’ve used thicker paper for decoupage on my wood letters. And it comes up beautifully! Just be sure to use the parchment paper on top of the paper your attaching.

[@alyaali4029]

Did you use very thick resin?

[@RADCreativeArt]

Normal 2 part resin was used, placed on a level dust free area to cure. Heat dryer was used the first 15 mins as some bubbles surfaced, so I could achieve the glass finish desired. ☯️😊

[@alyaali4029]

Hello, Is why didn't you varnish tissue paper?

[@RADCreativeArt]

Varnish would not give the same effect that I wanted for this tray. It would leave to much room for damage and scratches if I just used varnish.

[@markvalvano4252]

no need to seal the wood?

[@RADCreativeArt]

@@markvalvano4252 If it’s a resin pour project, than no, you don’t need to seal . You can varnish the sides if you’d like. 👍🏻

[@markvalvano4252]

@@RADCreativeArt thanks...yes I meant the sides/bottom

[@UKerPerspective]

Hi - does the resin make the tray heat resistant?

[@RADCreativeArt]

Yes, Just be sure to read the package, as some resins are not heat resistant or food safe.
