Recommended glue and decoupage varnish and glue for Handcrafted Holiday Traditions Ornaments and Bases:

• Use a good bonding glue such as Titebond Quick and Thick or Aleene's Glues. 
• We use ModPodge Decoupage Glue, Sealer and Finish products to decoupage our rice papers and other papers on projects. They're non-toxic, waterbased and have a great shelf life. 
• We love ModPodge Select Seal for our sealing our decoupage projects on our MDF projects. It is waterbased and can be applied over FolkArt Fine Crackle. 

What is MDF (medium density fiberboard)? 

Medium-density fiberboard, or MDF, is an engineered wood product made with broken down hardwood or softwood pieces made into wood fibers. These fibers are combined with wax and resin to bind it and form it into panels which are compressed at high temperature and pressure. It is made up of separated fibers and is commonly used in building materials similar to plywood. MDF is denser and sturdier than particle board and can be denser than plywood.
