instructions

Cut a piece of buffalo plaid fabric to fit inside the front of one of the pillows. Cut another piece of orange fabric that will fit inside the buffalo plaid fabric.
Find a font that you like and transfer the letters to the plain paper in the order you would like for them to appear on the pillow.
Cut out the letters with a craft knife and place in the center of the orange fabric. Stencil the letters in Black.
Sew the orange fabric to the buffalo plaid and then the buffalo plaid to the pillow.
For the bat pillow, find an image online for a bat pattern. Apply the Fabric Mod Podge to the back of the 3 small black and white printed fabric. Once dry place the bats on the back of the fabric and trace. Cut out the bats and use the Fabric Mod Podge to adhere them to the pillow.

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.

How do I decoupage with napkins or tissue paper?

First check to see if the napkin is 2 ply. If so, separate and lay aside. Brush Mod Podge directly on the your surface. Carefully place the printed napkin on the surface and lightly blot down with a dampened sponge. Start blotting in the center and work to the edge. Once it is in place, let dry. After about 30 minutes lightly apply a top coat of Mod Podge.

How do I apply paper inside glass or acrylic?

Apply a coat of Mod Podge® to the inside of the form and allow to dry slightly. Place the Napkin design where desired and gently rub it flat with your thumb.
Cover the image with a second very thin coat of Mod Podge®, beginning in the center and brushing out. Allow to dry thoroughly.
Add special sponging or spouncing effects, as desired, around the design and let dry.
Paint the whole inside with a light color of FolkArt® Acrylic Colors. If you want to use a darker color inside, first paint around the Napkin design with a light color, let dry and then add the darker color.
