I paint a lot of kindess rocks and seashells. I like to paint the rock or seashell and then apply a rub-on transfer on top. To protect the transfer I brush 1-2 light coats of Clear Mod Podge over-the-top. I like using the one that gives you a glossy finish. Let it dry overnight and your project is ready to go. You can get really creative using these in various arts and craft projects.
