Does anyone know if I put Deco foil on a wood box, could I seal it?
Thank you.
You could use a spray sealer, Rust-o-lium ,Krylon and others should do the trick!
You can use a stencil to draw the image on your wood. Then use some fabric glue to glue the area. Now take your deco foil that is cut the size of your image and lay it on the glue that is a bit tacky. Use a hair dryer that is set on high heat for 30 seconds to one minute.
Your question is not very clear as to exactly what you are wanting to do.
Seal a box? Deco foil is pretty expensive so if you are wanting 'seal' a complete box it would have to be small or the cost may be too high.
If you are talking about using deco foil to decorate a wooden box then there are numerous sites on YouTube that have good instructions and many, many sites to check out.
There are several ways to do this according to whether you will be doing graphics or lettering and the instructions are lengthy and that is why I suggested finding a site that looks like what you plan to do.
