    • @OurUpcycledLife

      Yes, it might. If it’s going to be a jar that you’re going to use a lot I would not paint the rim.

    • @OurUpcycledLife
      @OurUpcycledLife  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching ❤️ you have to make sure the glass is really clean and no oils in it and then let dry really well between coats. When doing the transfer you should only dampen the paper if you use to much water it will lift everything off the glass. ❤️ keep trying

    Is it necessary to paint the jar before decoupaging? I have a vase that is already purple glass and found the perfect napkin that will cover 80% of it hoping no painting is necessary underneath?

    Another way to get off a label that doesn't tie up the sink: Wrap the jar with a couple of layers of wet paper towel or napkin, then put this in a plastic bag. Set it aside for a couple of hours or overnight, and the label should slip right off.

    You don’t put a coat of mod podge over the napkin once you put it on the jar? I thought once you put the napkin on you go over the top of it after letting it dry over night? Or that’s what I’ve heard. Lol
