Hey y'all,
Iwant to build a CBG with some photos of our grandson on it. What is the best way to glue & protect the photos?

Probably Modge Podge. Or use an industrial spray adhesive then coat over it. But modgepodge is made for decoupage.

Jason,
Thanks for the reply.....I forgot to state that the photos will be from an inkjet printer....will it smear the photo?

[Jason May]

no. my wife does it with ink jet. test it on a piece of wood first. Depends on printer and paper as well.
