    I follow several bible journalers - you should NEVER use mod podge in books that close up. In certain climates it will glue the pages together. It’s recommended to use matte gel medium as prep and adhesive. It’s not worth the risk using mod podge.

    • @judywest-thepaintingnana9434
      @judywest-thepaintingnana9434  2 роки тому +6

      The reason I use a watered down mod podge is to stop it from sticking. Probably a 2 parts water to 1 part mod podge. If that is not thin enough I add more water. I find when the mod podge is thick yes it does stick the pages together. If I don't get the consistency right but still have water in it the pages stick a bit but still come apart. Thank you for your advise Carolyn, I am sure others who have the option of using both will much appreciate this information. In my next video I will discuss this so that people will better understand why I use watered down mod podge and what their other options are. Have a great week.

      @@judywest-thepaintingnana9434 I would never take the chance. A relative lives in many different climates - humidity is a killer for mod podge in a book. I would hate for someone to create a beautiful page then have it rip or stuck together due to poor prepping suggestions. I’m sorry if that’s harsh, but I trust the advice of those who have experimented with all the mediums for bible journaling and know what is best. It’s not mod podge for closed books.

      @@carolynhartwig8974 I understand what you are saying but I live in QLD, Australia and the humidity here is unbelievable and a wet humidity so would definitely stick pages. As I said I can open the pages easily but it is up to the individual what they prefer and can afford.

    I have a easier way to try it. Put your mod podge down and let it dry completely then add the napkin. Use parchment paper and a iron and go over the napkin. It works and gets any wrinkles out as well. Thanks for sharing this is very creative.

    • @judywest-thepaintingnana9434
      @judywest-thepaintingnana9434  9 місяців тому

      That might be easier on a flat surface, but my book has items other than napkins in it that create lumps and bumps, so it would not have a smooth surface for the iron, but thank you for your suggestion.

    Hi, Judy…I’m Cindi, from WV (USA) and I just stumbled upon you (and subscribed)! I am getting things together to begin Bible journaling with my 2 youngest granddaughters, and using napkins is one thing I wanted to do with them! I thought I would start with the easiest things that will give them a great feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction! I don’t cover writing, either, if I can help it…however, the Bibles I use for journaling are not my study Bible or Bibles I read regularly. So….any videos I can use with my sweet girls that you can recommend are appreciated!! I will check out your other videos…thank you!

      Mod Podge is a glue, sealer and varnish in one, which is perfect for decoupage and other arts and crafts. With Mod Podge you can glue your project, varnish the surface and at the same time provide a protective coating (sealing). This makes Mod Podge great for all kinds of projects. There are a number of different types of Mod Podge for different sorts of jobs eg for fabric so it is washable etc.

      Some markers will bleed if you write on top. I use a Sakura Pigma Micron Black Marker and us a size 005 or 01 as that is the finnest line and therefore if it does bleed then it will be minimal. I have made a little journal with napkin borders I will be putting up in the future and I doodled over the top of the napkins with those markers and they came out great. Hope this is helpful Bobby. Great last name by the way!!!!!

      I am not sure Glen. The bible is a heavy book and the pages are so light and thin it will be awkward. I am quite happy with the finished results in my bible and so would not consider ironing them and take the risk of damaging the page, but if you try it let me know how you go.

    • @judywest-thepaintingnana9434
      @judywest-thepaintingnana9434  2 роки тому

      My Mod Podge was old and lost moisture so it had thickened up. I wanted it a bit thinner consistency so it was not too thick for the thin napkins and bible pages. If your Mod Podge is new then the consistency will probably be OK.
