If you haven't been to Wordle, you have to go there. Why? Because you can waste hours. Wow, that was embarrassing. I just told you that I wasted hours creating a blog Wordle. Awesome.
The real intention for this blog entry is to share with you a tip that I hope you value. Before I share this tip, I would like to thank (in addition to the Academy), my friends Patty and Holli, who have taught me everything I know about Mod Podge. Including this tip.
Problem: You've finished your Mod Podge project, it's dried, and it feels tacky. Sticky.
Solution: Purchase a clear acrylic sealer such as this one or this one. When you are done with your project, allow it to dry for time recommended (about 24 hours after the last coat). Spray a coat of sealer, allow to dry for 15 minutes, then spray another coat.
SPECIAL NOTE for furniture. I highly recommend Hard Coat Mod Podge. It's not tacky, because of the satin finish. It's basically a tougher Mod Podge, hence the slightly higher price. If you want a gloss finish, I suggest using the Hard Coat and then spraying a gloss sealer over it.
I hope this helps. Okay, back to creating another Wordle. You hush!

so, i'm decoupaging one of those little ikea drawer units (like this: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60073300), and using hard coat mod podge. if i use that, i don't have to seal it (unless i want it to be glossy), right? it'll be durable just the way it is? thanks!
Hey Meredith! Yep - You'll be totally fine. Good as gold!
