I love doing photo transfers, but they can involve a lot of rubbing, and that can be a little bit of a pain. I recently found this awesome DIY laser photo transfer to wood video tutorial by The Crafsman Steady Crafttin’, on YouTube, and it was so easy and did not require any rubbing. I was so excited and immediately had a ton of ideas bouncing around in my head of all the possibilities I could create with this fabulous new method. The best part about this easy project is that it works on painted wood and you can also paint a protective coating on it to use as an outdoor decoration.

Materials For Laser Photo Transfer With No Rubbing:

  • A laser print (on laser printer paper)
  • A piece of wood (I got a piece of sliced wood from Michae’s craft store, where  used my 60% off coupon I found on their app)
  • A paintbrush
  • Paper towels
  • Liquitex Gel Medium ( Mod Podge or Polyurethane)

Directions:

Then, you just place the photo face down and let dry, then gently peel back the paper. It is really that easy!

This is such a cute idea, I made a few that I used Acrylic coating on and I placed them outside on my new porch.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
