    Thank you for making the off handed comment about if you don’t paint your fabric you need to seal it. I couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t foil on my fabric then I painted it with mod podge and it works. It’s such a specific issue I couldn’t find any information on google about it. ❤

    Really cool! I'd love to see some on decorative paper covers. I also saw that spoonflower has different kinds of wallpaper. i wonder if it would be a good substitute or easy way to make your own customized book cloth, since some of it is reinforced custom printed fabric.
