Spread the love

If you’re looking for a different and unique way to display and show off your photos, why not transfer them to a piece of wood? They look really beautiful and they make wonderful gifts. We’ll show you 3 different ways they can look.

When finished it looks like the photo is part of the wood, not just glued on the top . The pictures can be color or black and white, and you can use regular, fresh-cut wood, weathered or pallet wood, and you are not limited by a standard size. It can be any size you’d like.

This is a great idea for mounting pictures from your phone camera and even from Instagram.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Picture printed on very thin paper
  • Mod Podge
  • Piece of wood cut in the size you want
  • Gel Medium – Liquitex Gloss Gel
  • Sandpaper
  • Foam brushes

Here are 3 different looks you can achieve with this process, and a tutorial video.
