- Welcome to the Upcycle Design Lab. I craft with recycled, repurposed, and unwanted materials. There is a lot of experimenting with trash and recyclables to make them "new" again. If you enjoy reusing repairing and re-imagining old items, I hope you will stick around and check out some of my other Upcycling tutorials and join those of us who are rethinking the things we throw away.

That makes sense to make the napkin a bit smaller than the printer paper so that the edges don't catch when it goes through the 🖨️ thank you for sharing this idea 👍
Thanks for watching Gloria 🙂
You can also do this with tissue paper and you can use rubber stamps on both tissue paper and napkins. I don't know why it never occurred to me to put napkins through my printer because heaven knows, I've put everything else through it 🤭😅. Thanks for the idea!
I agree with the comments about using hairspray for fixative and heat setting your ink... I heat set everything pretty much just to be safe. I just use heat press now because it's usually on and it's so quick but before I had that I just used my regular iron and never had a problem. Make sure you just press and lift as opposed to swiping the iron... As you would if you were ironing something. Swiping or moving the iron can smear the ink but if you just set the iron down and lift it straight back up and then set it down in another spot and lift it straight back up you should be okay.
Thanks for the tips. I have tried hairspray but it didn't seem to work. I didn't know about heat setting but that makes a lot of sense. I look forward to giving that a try. There are always so many interesting and fun projects and techniques to test out and so little time. 😊
You can use Hairspray as a sealant too.
Thanks for the info. I will definitely try the hairspray.
did u try it??

You can find an artist's acrylic clear spray with UV protection and give your work a light spray. I'm not sure how it works on tissue paper, but I use it in my paper based artwork to make it waterproof and fade proof.
Thanks for the tip 🙂
You need to bake your sheets at 175 for 15min. It sets the ink and it won’t bleed ☺️
Thanks for the tip. I will try that. 🙂
@@UpcycleDesignLab wish I didn't already have them on the kleenex box I'm making. Wonder if I can "bake" the box?
I was just about to ask about this. You are WONDERFUL!!!!!!
Loved the "Yes You Can" can.
It's kind of a stupid pun but I still liked it. 🙂
@@UpcycleDesignLab Bah ha ha!!! I love stupid puns!!!
Heat setting with an iron works for tissue and copy paper images.
Hi Jenny - Thanks for the tip 🙂
I saw another video and she put hair spray on the inkjet color images before decoupage. For small object like a earring, you can use packaging tape to seal the image
Thanks for the tips. 🙂
Maybe if you iron set the colors after they are printed off the ink jet you might reduce the bleeding on the red? Good luck!
Interesting idea. It is certainly worth a try. Thanks for the tip.
@@UpcycleDesignLab I would like to see your results, if you try the tips, from here, in the comment section. I just found your channel, a few days ago, and I am really enjoying your videos.
I also have a ink jet paper. I watch a video and the lady use hair spray on her images that was on issue paper First she had you to lay you printed tissue paper on top of parchment paper and then on to a cookie sheet. Preheat oven to 200 degrees than slide cookie sheet and printable into the oven for 10 minutes. She says this sets the ink in. Once it cools spray it with hair spray make sure you tell tell it a little damp. Let dry and it’s ready to use. I tried it and so far that method works great. I have a brother I just printer
Hey Rhonda, thanks so much for the tip I will have to give it a try. 🙂
@@UpcycleDesignLab I’m new at all this so I have been watching a lot of video. Laser printer are to expensive for me.
@@SunshineForever-oj7jx I hear you. I wish I had a lazer printer myself but it hasn't fit in the budget yet.
Hi and thanks for this info. Do you know which YT video it was? Maybe you could put the link? Thanks.
Thank for sharing your craft❤
Thanks for watching 😊
You can edit the printer settings. Try changing the paper to light weight. Try different settings to stop the bleeding too. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the tips. I have a very inexpensive printer so there aren't many setting options. 🙂
I do the same technique but using tissue paper.
I use tissue paper, too, and find that temporary spray adhesive (which I have in my craft space from other projects) works better than taping.
I like the spray adhesive idea. I haven't tried tissue paper but I did wonder if it would work.
oh my gosh, you are so talented and creative! I was looking at something like this last December and thought it might be truly unique to be able to create one. I love your work! Wow! Subscribed to your channel and I am so happy to meet you here as well, my VRAFAM!
Thanks Jackie. It's lovely to meet you as well.
Hello how're you doing today hope you and your family are safe due to the covid 19 pandemic?
@@hurstjames6199 Thanks so much for checking in!
@@JackieDiy We are all safe thanks
Where are you from if I may ask?

Hi. I saw a video like this and she said to allow the color print to dry for 30 min. Try that. Then post another video letting us know that it worked. I hope this helps. 🙏
Thanks for watching and for the tip 🙂
try heat setting the printed napkins before using the modge podge on them. It works on fabric and I saw another crafter on you tube heat set her printed tissue paper before gluing it down and it didn't bleed when she applied the modge podge! I wish I could tell you her name.....sorry! but I've tried this prior with fabric and bleeding doesn't happen at all.....
Hi Star thanks for the tip.🙂
Use the oven method. No issues.
Thanks I will have to try that. 🙂
Try to use spray fixative
Thanks - I did try it once but I think i needed a second coat. 🙂
An ink fixative works. Not a sealer. And it has to cure/set for a bit. Works on even red
Thanks for the tip. Do you have one you recommend?
Love this tutorial, could you please let have a link to the decoupaged bottles
Hi Lorraine thanks for watching. Sorry I didn't do a full tutorial for the bottles.
I spray hair spray before I decoupage it seems to help with bleeding
Hi Melodie - Thanks for the tip 🙂
enjoyed the video thankyou
Thanks for watching 🙂
I got the name...fixative spray...
Thanks I will give it a try.
there is a product in the art section of the art stores or maybe u can find it in hobby lobby or Michaels that is a spray to stop bleeding, smudging, etc. I can not remember the name but it is used to stop charcol dust to go all over the paper. I am sorry i can not remember the name.. U can use it before printing and see how that works or after printing ...experiment with it and see what works best.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Fixative Spray, small amount at first and i am sure it will work great.
I've also heard to use hairspray.
Thanks for the tip 🙂
Someone said she sets her color with heat by ironing after printing.
Thanks I need to give that a try. Thanks for watching 😊
I like the idea but there seems to be a lot of waste 🤔
waste ??? What waste?🤔
You might try misting one side, heat set and flip over, repeat.
Hi Kaye - thanks for the idea.
You might be able to get rid of the embossing by dampening the napkin and then ironing it dry
I did try using some water but I didn't have much luck with it. Thanks for watching.
Its doesn't work :)((((
Sorry this process didn't work for you
I'm sorry. This is just too much work with too many issues that can arise.
Hello how're you doing today hope you and your family are safe due to the covid 19 pandemic?
