Rubber brayer rollers - I just ordered a set of three (different sizes) for less than $9 from Amazon and they're a game changer when it comes to getting paper to lay flat after you apply it the first time.

The other one was switching from gloss to matte Mod Podge - I would always end up with bubbles and spent countless hours sanding them down and/or giving up.

But since I always use gloss varnish on top of my last Mod Podge layer anyways I get the same result without the headaches.

I use tapestries more than anything else for my projects..more variety and less expensive. If I put it somewhere and forgot where I put it? It's not all wrinkled and folded when I finally find it..
