How do I apply the colorful art to the toys? All of the art images needed for each toy is provided in the plan set at full-size. The pages are designed to print on any home or office color computer printer using standard 8-1/2" x 11” paper*. The art is cut out with scissors and applied to the wood using standard Mod Podge paste available at your local crafts stores such as Walmart, Hobby Lobby, Michael’s and online. If you're using an Inkjet printer to print your art image pages you'll want to seal the pages with spray-on clear sealer**. A final coat of brush-on clear finish or spray clear finish is recommended for a rugged finish for active play.
* For our international customers: Adequate margins are included on every page for easy printing on A4 paper.
