Once you have printed out your play dough mat, there are three ways to cover it:
- Contact Paper – cut out two pieces of contact paper slightly larger than the mat. Put one piece on the front and another on the back, sticky sides together so the edges are sealed.
- Plastic Page Protectors – by far the quickest option! Just slip the mat into one of these plastic sleeves and you’re ready to go.
- Laminator – the most professional finish. Just place the mat inside a laminating pouch and run it through the laminator.
Enjoy!
This is fantastic ! (Is anyone else having issues getting through to RoyalBaloo?…are they not still around?;( ?
