Lay your fabric pieces on wax paper and spray Mod Podge Ultra onto them until the fabrics are saturated. Let dry.
When the fabric is stiff, cut out the floral shapes. Since the fabric has been coated in Mod Podge Ultra, it will no longer fray.
Trace stencils or a print out of the word "GROW" onto your solid colored fabric. Cut out with scissors.
Spray a coat of Mod Podge Ultra onto the metal sign and place the fabric pieces where desired. Spray another coat onto the fabric pieces. Allow the sign to dry compeltely and spray another coat of Mod Podge Ultra if needed.

Decorated candles using Mod Podge ® or Royal Coat ® Decoupage Finish are meant for decorative purposes and not for illumination. Many of the decorations would catch fire and be hazardous if the candle were burned. However, if you are using a wide pillar candle and the decorations do not go to the top of the candle, it can be burned down slightly to create a well, then a votive candle inserted into the well. A new votive candle can be inserted when the old one is finished. Use extreme caution and good judgment when burning candles that have been decorated.

Can I create a layered border effect with a painted background by taping off an area?

Yes, simply use stencil or painter’s tape to mask off a border. Load a Fabric Creations™ Sponge Cube with Soft Fabric Ink and pounce the color onto the masked area.

Be sure to allow the painted background area to dry thoroughly before stamping over it with a design.

Do you have any tips on the best way to thread a needle?

Separate the strands of floss

Take one strand and double it (most cross stitches require 2 strands, while back stitches require just one.)

Thread the looped end of the strand through the eye of the needle

Pull the loop to the bottom

NEVER make knots in your floss, so as to ensure a smooth finished back.
