Waiting for the Decoupage Medium to dry, always makes us nervous.
Why?
Decoupaged Ironstone Platter Take 1: wrinkles!
Decoupaged Ironstone Platter Take 2: More wrinkles
Decoupaged Ironstone Platter Take 3: you know...
We finally got it right!
and once we did, we couldn't stop...
Practice makes it perfect!!TIP:
To avoid the wrinkles, we glued the image to our plates using spray glue.
Huge difference! The image dried perfectly flat, a light decoupage medium coat was applied later to protect the image.

These turned out so nice. I have had the same problem with wrinkles. I was usually able to roll them out, but sometimes this made the paper tear! I will try your tip and use spray glue next time first.
Well they certainly turned out beautiful. Thanks for saving the rest of us steps.
Hugs...Tracy :)
They look great! I think even your booboos are wonderful!

I'm so lucky because I always get to see the beautiful finished projects. And actually a few have come home with me. So, I try not to visit that area of the store too often!
Take care, Sue

Great tip and I have a platter or two that I can use for this project. Thank you for sharing.
You gals have the greatest ideas! Love them all. I'm going to be down in your neck of the woods for a few days and am going to try and stop in at Country Roads. I'm looking forward to some sun and warmth.
