Mod Podge Dimensional Magic is a popular craft product that allows you to add a three-dimensional effect to your artwork or crafts. It is a clear, epoxy-like substance that dries to a hard, glossy finish. This product is commonly used to create a raised, domed effect on jewelry, paper crafts, and other DIY projects. It can be applied over the top of images or designs to give them a shiny, glass-like finish. To use Mod Podge Dimensional Magic, you simply squeeze it out of the bottle onto your project. It is important to apply it in an even, controlled manner to avoid air bubbles and ensure a smooth surface.
DM is a waterbase, acrylic product as I said before. This means that you can get it on your fingers and wash it off – and it’s not going to hurt you. You don’t need to wear a mask or gloves to apply it and the fumes aren’t toxic.
Which I know it one of those things were its going to happen but like I said I had a difficult time popping the air bubbles when I first put the Dimensional Magic in the tray pendent. After it was dry I had mixed emotions because the color was clear, my image below the Dimensional Magic was not dull but there were still air bubbles.
It is important to apply it in an even, controlled manner to avoid air bubbles and ensure a smooth surface. The product is self-leveling, meaning it will spread out and smooth itself as it dries. Once applied, Mod Podge Dimensional Magic will dry to a clear, hard finish within 24 hours.

Hello Everyone,
Today I wanted to do a review on Mod Podge's Dimensional Magic.
Now I had heard about this product months ago but just never got around to buying it. I would always walk by it in Hobby Lobby and think to myself that I really need to try this product. Well a few months ago when I was thinking about new jewelry for my shop, I had the idea to create jewelry that had a ''resin'' look. I did not want to pay 12.00- 20.00 dollars for a resin kit, so I decided to take the plunge and buy dimensional magic.
On Plaidonline.com they describe the product as:
Create faux mosaic, quilt and other textures with added dimension. Dries clear and allows the full color of the surface below to show through. Works with Mod Podge, acrylic paint, dyes, pigments and more. Stay put formula won’t sag or run. Perfect for jewelry, paper crafting and accenting home décor items.
I was pretty excited when I got the product home. I began using it on tray pendents and when the product came out of the bottle, it was a milky white. Then I popped any air bubble (which were kinda of difficult to pop) and let it dried. Over time the milky white color would turn clear. I also let it dry over night.
After it was dry I had mixed emotions because the color was clear, my image below the Dimensional Magic was not dull but there were still air bubbles. Which I know it one of those things were ''its going to happen'' but like I said I had a difficult time popping the air bubbles when I first put the Dimensional Magic in the tray pendent.
It saids on the bottle not to shake because it can cause air bubbles. I didn't shake the product but when I looked inside my bottle I could see some air bubbles. So the bottle could have been shaken when I was carrying it around in the store or when the cashier threw it in the bag.
I didn't let the air bubbles keep me down because after using the product a few times I noticed that the air bubbles became less and less. So my suggest would be to take a paper plate and squeeze out some of the product onto the plate before you use it on your project. I actually used the product on my Easter Candy Box DIY and it worked great (this was after I had used it few times).
Overall I would give Mod Podge Dimensional Magic 4 out of 5 stars. It gave you that ''resin'' look, it was easy to use and compare to resin it was much cheaper ( I paid 5.99 at Hobby Lobby). The only con I had about this product was the air bubbles. I felt like they were difficult to pop and if you weren't careful that the air bubbles would form.
So have any of you guys used Mod Podge Dimensional Magic?
p.s Before buying the product I had watch this video about how to use dimensional magic, what projects it was best for and so on. Some of you may find it helpful!

Typically it’s because there is moisture below the Dimensional Magic. If you decoupage below your Dimensional Magic, make sure the surface is completely dry for several hours before applying the DM.
The drying time can vary depending on the thickness of the application and the environmental conditions. It is important to note that the product is not waterproof, so it should not be submerged in water or exposed to moisture for extended periods. Overall, Mod Podge Dimensional Magic is a versatile and fun craft product that can add a unique touch to your projects. Whether you are creating jewelry, greeting cards, or home decor, this product can take your crafts to the next level by adding dimension and shine..
Reviews for "Crafts for Kids: Exploring Mod Podge Dimensional Magic in a Fun and Safe Way"
1. Jessica - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with Mod Podge Dimensional Magic. I was expecting it to add a beautiful and glossy finish to my crafts, but instead, it left a cloudy and uneven texture. The instructions were not clear, and I ended up wasting a lot of product because of it. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product as it did not meet my expectations.
2. Sarah - 1/5 stars - I had high hopes for Mod Podge Dimensional Magic, but it turned out to be a complete letdown. The product was extremely difficult to work with, and it created a sticky mess on my project. The finish was far from smooth and glossy, as advertised, and it took forever to dry. I would advise against wasting your money on this product unless you want to deal with a lot of frustration and disappointment.
3. Michael - 2/5 stars - I gave Mod Podge Dimensional Magic a try, and unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations. The application was messy and the product seemed to be clumpy, making it difficult to create a smooth finish. Additionally, the drying time was significantly longer than what was indicated, which caused some smudging and ruined my project. I would not recommend using this product for any crafts that require precision and a professional-looking finish.
4. Emily - 3/5 stars - I found Mod Podge Dimensional Magic to be just okay. It did add a glossy finish to my crafts, but the texture was not as smooth as I had hoped. The product was also a bit difficult to apply evenly, and the drying time was longer than expected. While it served its purpose to some extent, I believe there are better alternatives out there that provide a more satisfactory result.
