Putting Decals On Wood

RE: Putting Decals On Wood Post by Glitz (3) | (06/16/2008) Profile | Contact A long time ago I read where you apply varnish to your wood and let it dry. They used an iron to soften the varnish for the pic to sink to the bottom of the varnish top of the wood. But given todays tools I think a small heat gun might work better. Try with something that is not good before you try it on a good project.

You can use graphite transfer paper or make your own with a pencil and some white paper. Color one side of the paper with a pencil until it's all colored, then put you pattern on top of paper, and out line with a pen or pencil to transfer the design to the wood. Then wood burn it with a tool get some water color pencils and color it in then wet paint over it for a painted look.

If you think it needs it spray some polyurethane on and make it shine better. Bonnie Report Spam or Abuse
