Instructions

  1. Place 11 popsicle sticks in a row. Place a piece of tape vertically on top of them so that they stick together. See project photo for reference.
  2. Use your ¾” flat brush to apply Matte Mod Podge on the side of the sticks that doesn’t have tape. Place your printed photo in the center of the sticks. Use your fingers to flatten the photo and press out any air bubbles. Let dry.
  3. Seal your photo with Mod Podge Matte. Let dry.
  4. Use your #10 flat brush to paint a frame around your photo with Aquamarine. Use the back of your brush to create dots around your frame with Aquamarine. Let dry.
  5. Remove the tape from the back of your popsicle sticks. Use your exacto knife to cut apart the individual popsicle sticks. It helps to bend the individual sticks to see the crease between each stick.
