I tried to make these with fake leaves and Modge Podge as centerpieces for my wedding. Thank goodness I left plenty of time before the wedding to do crafts. It was an unsuccesul attempt and I had to go with another idea. Maybe it would work better with real leaves. Thanks for the idea though!
yes, fyi, Mod Podge does NOT stick to glass. I had to switch to a really strong spray adhesive that worked but my hands are now covered in it and I feel like they will be for days.
I'm going to attempt with hot glue gun and fake leaves. I knew from being an artist and art therapist there was no way ModgePodge was going to hold fake leaves. Maybe real ones! Sorry you all had problems. I'll let you know how hot glue works but I'm afraid it'll just pop off once it's cool.
I'm glad I'm not the only one , I am using real leaves and i am having a hard time getting them to stay.i did have a lil success When I put the glue on the leaf let it dry for the most part then put a lil more on and let it dry a lil till it was sticky, but that still took patience and a lot of holding the leaf and kept pushing it down. Very slow process and have to have a lot of patience but still not working too well I feel like the leaf might burn If I put a candle in it

Three people and myself tried this project and we were unsuccessful. Maybe real leaves would work.

I'm having the same problem!! Can't get the leaves to stick!! Yikes!! What a mess!!!
So can I ask what glue would work best ? Please post I would like to try this project. Thanks
Did not work for me either. Tried Mod Podge and spray adhesive. Hoping to hear from someone that has has sucess with this project.
