Great, Jan!!! I’m so happy for your success! Thanks so much for letting us know!

Hi Debra. Yessssss! Success with Clingfilm purchased from my local supermarket- their own brand-which it advertises as being PVC free and recyclable.
Thanks for your helpful feedback, I’m now up and running and can’t wait to get some greetings cards done before moving on to pretty boxes.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Hi, Jan. I always have Glad Cling Wrap and have never had a problem. Others have commented that the wrap they used didn’t work. I will have to buy a cheap brand and try it, but it’s a simple process and I can’t imagine a plastic wrap that doesn’t melt. The only thing I can think of is that maybe you aren’t leaving the iron in one place long enough for the plastic to melt.
Try it on a small scrap piece of cardstock, plastic wrap, and napkin. Be sure to use the parchment paper to protect your iron and ironing board. Then, set the iron on medium high to high heat and set the iron on it for maybe 10 seconds. You can move the iron around but keep the stack of cardstock, plastic, and napkin covered with the iron. Then, lift the paper and see if the plastic has begun to melt. The iron has to be hot enough. If the 10 seconds doesn’t work, repeat, and see if another 10 seconds does the job. You should see some of the plastic melting by then. Once you figure out how long it takes to melt the plastic, you’ll be good to go.
Please let me know if this works for you.

Hi Debra, I have spent my evening trying to get the napkin to stick to the card without success. I have used greaseproof paper and baking parchment, I have used Clingfilm and a single layer of the napkin, I have ironed with medium heat and hotter, all to no avail.
I was so excited starting off and so disappointed by the end of the evening.
Any suggestions?

Christine, I use parchment paper, not freezer paper! (We are an Amazon affiliate and may receive a percentage of any sales through this link.) I haven’t tried freezer paper, but since one side is waxy, you wouldn’t want your iron on that side. My understanding is that freezer paper will stick to fabric when ironed onto it, but it will peel off, too. That makes it great for quilting, but not for this project. Hope that helps. The parchment paper works really well, and you can iron on either side.

Thank you, Lora? I haven’t tried to make furniture transfer paper but I will definitely see what I can find. Surely, there is an easy way! Yes, please let me know if you figure it out first. Thanks for visiting!

Kimberly, I haven’t tried this on wood so, I’m not sure. It seems that Mod Podge might be a better option. If you have some scrap wood, you might try it on a piece. Good luck!

Kimberly, I haven’t tried this on wood. I’m not sure but I do know that Mod Podge works quite well and might be a better option. You might just want to test this on some scrap wood. Are you working on furniture or a plaque?
