Have you found a way to keep the salt on the paper to where it is not falling off?

In reply to Erin. Thanks, Erin! Raised salt paintings are really difficult to preserve because they immediately start to crack and crumble when they are dry. I don't know if it would be possible to paint one with Mod Podge to preserve it because of the loose salt. Maybe a spray varnish world work, but you would have to apply a lot and hope it's strong enough to hold the salt. If you try it let me know how it goes!

I love this salt painting! I know kids of all ages would love this. Have you ever tried to save one? Maybe mod podge or some sort of adhesive spray? I may have to experiment!
