I have been using mod podge since the late 80's and used it on image transfer since then as well. Although back in the day the instruction was to just paint right over the image with mod podge instead of removing the paper. Removing the paper is much better as it last longer and looks better. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for answering a question I was going to ask about...laying the image face up on the modpodged wood instead of facedown...I recognize the difference it would make now👍🏼
I've used label paper for this process and it works great. Peel all the labels off first, then print your image onto the slick side of the paper. The paper peels easily off the wood; no rubbing required.The image came out nice and dark even on dark stained wood. I did let it set for 24 hours per the Mod Podge instructions.
Hi Liz it is so nice to see you sit down and talk like you are in the same room with us! It’s just you being you! I love the relaxed vibe! Always enjoy your videos but today was great!! 💕🥰
Great! Thanks so much for watching. Stay tuned for more inspiring videos! :)
Liz Fenwick DIY looking forward to seeing what you do for Easter!! ❤️
Wow!! Something new,I've not seen. Thank you so much. Hope to try it. You're amazing. Tfs Judy.
Mod Podge makes a transfer medium you use the same way and it works beautifully. I didn't know you could do it with regular Mod Podge - I'm going to try that. But last Christmas I made personalized T-shirts for gifts with the transfer medium, and they've even held up in the wash.
Great tutorial! 💓 I have done this many times for gifts and it's always well received. I have actually use a homemade recipe of mod podge it's 2 parts (dollar tree) glue to 1 part water. (Works just the same as the good stuff for me and it's much cheaper) Also 8hrs is the least amount of time for it to set to have a good outcome. When I have given it as a gift I usually use 3 shiplap style wood put together or one good size piece. Wrap some twine 5 times around one side for a more finished look. Love it!
Love it so easy! Thank you for posting!
This is a wonderful project! I have done this multiple times. I have used modge podge but I found that I have the best success with Americana Decor Image Transfer medium. I put a thin coat on my wood and a thin coat on my image and let it dry. Then I add another coat to the wood and the image and while still wet, I place my image on my wood. I let it dry completely and then start with the water and a rag and mostly my fingers to get the remaining white paper left on the wood image. Getting that remaining paper off can take some time because you only see it when it starts drying but with time and patience it will turn into a beautiful art piece! I love all of your videos Liz!! I hope you have a blessed day!
I will try and post a few pictures of the ones I have done, on your Facebook group page.
what paper do you use?
These would be a cute Mother's/Father's Day gift for Grand Parents. Even for Valentine's Day in the shape of hearts
Great! Stay tuned for more great videos. Happy crafting! :)
Yes I have done this & yes it’s can be tricky & sometimes frustrating! I watched many videos on it to make sure I was doing it right but sometimes I got so frustrated because I didn’t like outcome. I did have a little some success. So my suggestion is make sure it’s a laser print.😀
Hi Liz great job looks great 👍 TFS enjoy your evening ♥️💕♥️
Good tutorial. Showed the final project is always good. Great you gave tips for success!
Thank you . You explain this that I could understand. Have a great day.
Eeek! Yes so excited for this! Tfs 😘🥰
Love this great idea thank you for sharing you have a wonderful weekend 😊
I used a ink jet printer. Reversed the image because of the writing. It did just fine. It was a color print onto galvanized metal.
I was about to say ink jet printer works also..thats how i been doing mines lol
@@chinaaurrabazo193 Really??? Cause I’ve been going to Office Depot and having them print my photos but they have $5 minimum for printing services so I’ve been spending a whole lot of money 😞
@@ruthsalinas9479 lol yess... i print mines out at work lol
@@chinaaurrabazo193 So Inkjet prints will work on wood for sure? 😱 Cause everyone says no 😒
@@ruthsalinas9479 mine did not - some of the brighter colors run and it depends on the medium you use - beware.....
Great for tree ornaments, key chains. Thanks for the tips on what NOT to do. Helpful!
Stay tuned for more inspiring videos. Thanks for watching! :)
great tips at the end for how to avoid mistakes. did this before and it was great (dad nearly in tears - hiking photo on wood plaque with natural bark) so looking for tips for next attempt
I’m going to try this, hope I get good results. Thanks Liz
I'd love to see photos of your craft on our Facebook group. Thanks for watching, Estrella! :)
That is the easiest way I have ever seen that done. I'm so happy you did this video!
Thanks Cori! I was happy with the way they turned out :-)
When using dark cabinet panels, I sand down the area I'm using first. It removes the stain & leaves a great work area. Great way to use reclaimed items.
Great tutorial Liz! Thanks for sharing
You're welcome, Nora. Stay tuned for more great videos. Happy crafting! :)
Good project. Thanks for sharing what didn't work. It helps. ❤️Blessings.

Hi Aracely. Thanks for watching my videos. :)
I love you videos. They are inspiring ideas for my living room remodel. Which will be in a few months. My husband is building a man cave outside and all the taxidermy and furniture is going with him. So I’ll have to redo that room. So excited.

You're welcome, Rebecca. Stay tuned for more great videos. :)
I’ve never tried this, only bcuz I didn’t know how🤦🏽♀️ This looks easy but very delicate to do. I’ll try it. Thanks Liz...I absolutely love you girl💞 Awesome project👍🏼
YUO CAN GET PAPPER AND PRINT UR PIC ON IT & PUT ON THE WOOD & USE A IRON TO TRANSFER IT IT DOES REAL GOOO JUST MAKE SURE THE WOOD IS SMOOTH
Hello liz you are the best thank you so much 😊 girl have a great weekend 🦋🦋🦋🦋😍😍😍

That's so cute!!
Have to think about something!!
Thanks
Hi Wilma. Thanks for watching my videos. Happy crafting! :)
This is a wonderful project!
Great! Stay tuned for more fun and exciting videos. Happy crafting! :)
That is so beautiful!
Thanks so much, Eva! :)
These are so neat! I’ve wanted to try, but no access to a laser printer. Recommendations on a good one?? Instead, we bought bathroom tiles and mod podge photos to them for coasters. They made perfect gifts and our families loved them! Have a beautiful wknd! ❤️
I've been wanting to do this so thank you for this video! :-)
You're welcome. Stay tuned for more fun videos. :)
Good one, thanks!
I really like this DIY. It would be perfect with my decor. 🐢
Hi Cheri. I'm happy you like it. I'd love to see photos of your craft on our Facebook group. :)
I like to put a white coat of paint on the wood and then sand it so that it gives it the distressed look and that way the wood gains definitely come through and the picture did also!!
Great idea thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, Maria. Stay tuned for more great videos. :)
I did this in the fall with a pumpkin shaped wood slice I got at target dollar spot and some scrapebook paper.
I remember doing this in high school it was fun
Hi Liz I think they are lovely? You could use them to make rustic Christmas tree decorations as well . Great idea Thankyou 😊
Thanks so much, Terri! Stay tuned for more great videos. :)
Thankx for explain the way
Hi Khadija Bendidi! Thanks so much for watching my video. 😊
I’ve never done this before Liz but I’m definitely going to try it. These would make fantastic Christmas/Mother’s Day/Father’s Day gifts. Thanks so much for sharing and I hope you have a wonderful weekend. 🤗
Hi Maggie. I'd love to see photos of your craft on our Facebook group. Thanks for watching! :)
Nice sharing 👍
Thanks for watching! :)
Those would make cute Christmas ornaments or labels glued on top of mason jars
Inkjet works even better if you use it like a big wet stamp and put it directly on a transfer medium like polyacrylic or a super porous matte surface. I just got one for Christmas 😁💕
Can you please explain how to do this?
I've tried using my home inkjet printer and it worked really well.
Needed this. Kinda got worried when people said they used laser printers. Glad to hear that inkjet works too
Love the wood slice picture of you're beautiful family
Hi Debra. I'm glad you love it. Thanks for watching! :)
Love to try it with my company logo.
Hi Becki. I'm glad you love it. Thanks for watching! :)
I want to do this.. when I visit or stay in campground or state park take a picture of sign (with kids ) and put on wood slice. cute decoration for inside camper. (Just bought a camper myself, named him TILLMAN- he is going to have a hippy relaxing vibe.)
Hi!! I have a question- have you used colored pictures or only black and white? I just realized my wood is a bit dark (I plan on starting my project tonight). What type of white paint would you recommend for behind - so it also doesn’t rub off? Thanks!! I’m excited!
Your aswesome! Thank you so much you explain it without talking a lot in between.
Hi Stephanie Stonum. I really appreciate you saying that. Thank you for watching my videos. 😍
ink jet works also perfectly!
Hi WhiteRose! Thanks so much for watching my video. 😊
I only have an ink jet printer, I'm going to try it right now! Wish me luck!
Do you think this would work on the particle board items from DT? Or is it best to just mod podge those.
I have also done this type of project adhering fabric onto freezer paper, ran it through my computer and pasted it onto wood. It’s another option.
Great idea! I always run into trouble when I try to put things through my printer. For some reason they always jam😂
I have not tried this yet. I saw someone apply the modge podge to the picture face up. The picture was much clearer, sharper and darker. I will try that.
That's great! I wish you all the best on your project, Becci Lee. 😍
I probably won't attempt this project. Yours turned out nicely though 😉
Ashley champ good to know you won’t be trying this 🤔
Hi, I recently started doing small projects using different tech. and I ran.across this video, pertaining to the transfer of photos to wood, it was exactly what I needed, your method of teaching the proper way to use the supplies needed, really helped,( thank you)...I'm working on a project to transfer some images on wood, it'll be the first, so wish me luck, what I'd like to do eventually is do a large panoramic transfer, like you did , but in a much larger scale, any advice would be greatly appreciated, I'd love to get some advice, pointers, ideas., if you have time....thank you for the video, love. To hear from you....Galen
Could you do this onto bamboo you think? Particularly bamboo fans so when it opens you see the design?
Did you print your photos on regular paper or did you use thicker paper? Also, any tips on removing the photo transfer from the wood if it didn’t turn out well the first time?
JUST SAND IT OFF AND START OVER AND DONT USE THICK PAPPER ITS HARDER TO COME OFF
Hi. I also have some questions for you: 1- before the procedure, is there anything on the slice of wood? 2- is the image somehow in the mirror ... to be printed properly? 3-What glue do you put on the image when you turn it over? 4- I saw that after it dried up you came across another lake ... what lake is it?5-on what type of paper is the picture printed? I'm from Romania .... the products probably have a different name here .... that's why I ask ... thank you in advance
I have done this before but just put the image face up. I used the sample floor tiles you take ( I don't know if this id stealing) from Home Depot. And also chipboard. The only thing is that the mod podge remained tacky. What could I have done different.?
Hi Liz cool idea. Could it also be done like decopage? Keep the great ideas coming.
Sure. I just don’t think you’d be able to see the wood underneath.
@@lizfenwickdiy yes I understand and that is a great touch. Thank you 😊
They are cute. Clever idea. I have a question, the drawers behind you, that is in alot of your videos, looks like a Roman numeral clock.....do you have a tutorial video for that. My Granddaughter wants that on her desk.
Thanks again, Theresa! :)
Does the photo print out have to be a specific type of ink? Laser jet?
Is this a special
Kind of paper or regular printing paper used in a laser printer?
Have you used the mod lodge spray. I bought a bottle yesterday, but haven’t used it yet
No! That sounds like fun I will have to try it.
What kind of paper do you print the picture on? Also, how do you reverse the image before printing?
Flip the image on your pc before printing
What would I use for normal photos to stick to wood, Like the old fashion kind....
👍👍😊❤
Hi Jane. Thanks for watching! :)
@@lizfenwickdiy hello Liz🤗
Did you mirror your photos before you printed them?
Soo how long do you let it seal with the last coat of modge podge
How long do you "soak" the cloth on the image before removing and rubbing the image?
Can you use mod podge image transfer medium on wood?
What happens if you use a regular inkjet printer?
Do you know if this would work on a metal surface?
So the photo has to be on the printer paper for this to work right?
I tried this twice and a white film is left over. It looks like paper fibers are in there as well. I was super gentle and got off all the paper that I could...even to the point of messing up my image in some spots. What did I do wrong?
Are you using photo paper or just regular printer paper?????
Can you use a photo printed at a photo center?
does it have to be mod pudge or can it be something else?
I’ve been doing since I was teenager and I’m 76 now . More people should know how to do.thanks for showing . We used original photo.
Me to!! We used white school glue and a snapshot. I'll be 65.❤
Great! Thanks for watching my videos, Mary. :)
Can you do color too?
I probably missed a few of your videos but what are the curing times for this project after applying the Mod Podge during, before, and after? I hear 12 to 24 hours but after seeing your video, you didn't say anything about times. Thank you
3:34
Can you write (using Sharpie) a message or the date before you do the final coat of Mod Podge?
No one answers, but there have been easier ways since this video. 😊
I think you spray it with lacquer…
Does this work work colored images
Will a actual photo graph work
Could you use a photo that was printed at Walmart or Shutterfly?
I couldn’t find an answer to this question either
What kind of Mod Podge is being used?
Have to be paper and not photo paper correct. Does it have to be black and white
I'm curious if anyone has tried this with an inkjet printer (as I do not have a Laser printer) on plain paper vs photo paper?
What's the kind of paper?
Will walmart printers work?
