Today I show you how to transfer any photo to wood using label paper and polycrylic. This is great for colorful photos, black and white photos, or text.

Hey everyone! A lot of people have been mentioning the music in the video being too loud and I am so sorry about that! This was one of my first videos I've made and I didn't realize I made the music too loud. I will make sure to adjust that in any of my future videos! :D Thanks for letting me know and thanks for watching :D

People asking how to. Avery shipping labels. Take off the labels & print on the shiney side/the backing you peeled off the labels. To get most bang for your buck, use the shipping labels to ship stuff but keep the backing paper & use them for transfering images to wood. The labels themselves are useless in this transference project. Just remember to print glossy photo paper option in setting & mirror your image.

Awesome video, I had to look through the comment section to answer most of my questions, but looks like you can use an ink jet printer on shipping label paper and change printer settings to glossy and it will work and not smear, can't wait to try this 😍

@hildithemaltipoo7801 3 жыл бұрын

You give very few details on how to actually do this. I will assume now that you allowed the photo to dry before applying it but I didnt first try that as it was not in the instructions. Terrible mess. Other instructions using a similar method were using the photo when wet. I have found multiple "how-to's" using label paper and with/without a medium however with missing instructions we don't know what actually works.

Remove labels from label paper Size and horizontal flip image in word or other program Print on glossy side of label paper (or wax paper, or freezer paper) using an inkjet or laser printer (laser will provide much better detail and colour) with print settings for glossy paper selected Let the paper dry before handling and handle with care Put coat of water based acrylic (or modge podge, matte medium, or acrylic paint - any colour you want as a background, though it will be visible in light areas of the image) on fine sanded wood (painted, stained, or bare - the colour/grain will show through light areas of your image) or some other porous but smooth surface Carefully place image on surface Remove airbubbles with credit card or other flat sided object Let it dry for an hour or so (overnight if using modge podge or other medium), carefully peel the paper back Seal with water based sealer if desired Paper can be reused if in good condition

Any idea of what this could be or how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

It sounds like that may be an issue with your printer. My suggestion would be trying to brighten the picture either on your phone or computer with an image editor before printing and seeing if that helps!

I just let it sit until it was dry. You want to make sure that you set the printer to extra high glossy or high glossy. You may also need to adjust the amount of polycrylic you are using. It took me a few tries to get it perfect so don't give up!
