Steps (9 steps, 60 minutes)

1. 1

   Find an interesting second hand or dollar store frame.

   I paid 50 cents for this from the local Good Will.

2. 2

   This pack of napkins has four different designs in it, and they go very well with my bedroom design.

   Too bad they had only one of the frames. :(

3. 3

   Very carefully peel the printed sheet from the backing of the napkin.

   Remember, some have three layers, you will be working with just the top printed layer.

4. 4

   Check on how you want to center the image on the glass.

   Be careful the image is delicate. Trim off the excess paper. It is ok to leave it a bit larger than you need, it can be trimmed later.

   Better a tad to large than too small.

5. 5

   Clean the glass from the frame and paint one side of it with your decoupage glue, or any glue that will dry clear.

6. 6

   Very gently lay the napkin printed side up on the coated glass. Let dry thoroughly.

7. 7

   Once it is dry it is time to clean up the edges.

   I find a nail file works great to remove the small overhangs.

   Very gently draw the file over the edge, pulling toward you. Gently remove all the excess edges.

8. 8

   If you like how it looks in the frame with the number of coats of decoupage glue on it, secure in the frame, and hang on your wall.

9. 9

   You wall hangings are only limited by your imagination!
