instructions

Other Supplies

Pillow cover, Nine photocopies of photos, Foam paintbrush, Water, Sponge

Instructions

  1. Wash and iron your pillow cover. Place a piece of wax paper inside the pillow.
  2. Make photocopies (not inkjet copies) on a dry toner/laser copier (the kind at a local copy shop) Some inkjet printers will work but most smear so be sure to test if you want to try an inkjet copy. Trim your copies into equal sized squares.
  3. Working with one photo at a time, coat the photo with a thick layer of Mod Podge Photo Transfer. The photo should be totally white with no image showing through.
  4. Place the photos Mod Podge side down onto the pillow. Smooth with your fingers from the center.  Press the corners and edges to be sure they stick. Please wait 24 hours before step 5!
  5. Wet each image and wait 2 minutes. Working in a circular motion, gently rub off the paper to reveal the image below. You may have to do this step a few times before all the paper is removed.
  • PROJECT TIP: Add 3D designs over your photo transfer by sewing or gluing embellishments, gems or ribbons.
