I can't find suitable gift wrapping paper for a plaque project I'm working on so I'm wondering if I can use my printer instead. My question, what can I coat the printed photos with to make them last? Thank you!

Cathy Breedenon May 28, 2018Print the pics on a color laser printer & use Modge Podge to seal. If you don’t have a color laser printer, the office stores can print them from a flash drive for you. It’s not too expensive, but I’m sure you can call & ask in order to decide for yourself. The imk from the laser printer does not mess up the pic.![Connie]()
