Have you seen Glad's cling product-Press n Seal popping up in You Tube videos? If you have missed them you might want to checkout these tips.......
Have you had ink/paint/other wet medium leak onto what you wanted to remain a clean surface? Here is a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQSVbwr44EM) from a watercolorist who uses cling wrap to protect her journal.
Using Press n Seal for place and gluing sentiments. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ps3MEhIxqv8)
And one for positioning lots of die cut pieces- (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4PtKpiAPNk) begins at 2:10
Have you seen any other great tips for Press n Seal?

It's so funny you posted this Jan, I just watched the one from Simon says stamp! I thought it was a fun fact that Jennifer Mcguires husband invented it!
I have some but haven't use it in crafting. I will have to try it.

I have only seen the video where Jennifer McGuire uses it and yes, she said her husband works for P&G and invented it. Probably as part of a team of people, but nonetheless that is interesting.
I do not like the product for use in the kitchen so I am not sure I will get any for crafting. I was just visiting a relative who uses it and was thinking of stealing a piece, but I did not.

I don't use Press N' Seal---though I do know s couple people who do use it, and may ask for a piece sometime from them. Very cool how it is used to position. I like that idea!
So interesting the Jennifer McGuire's DH invented it.

Lol, Heidi! I don't like it for the kitchen either! i have had the same roll for over a year now and it's down to maybe a foot or so of it left. After watching the video I put the remainder in my craft box! I've been making myself use it up.

This is so funny about our uses of the wrap in the kitchen. First of all I don't watch TV commercials so I didn't know there was a new product much less how to use it. It must have been after dinner on Christmas that I put the leftover half of ham in a shallow bowl and grabbed the wrap to cover the part outside the dish. Mostly I got way too many laughs as it went everywhere but over the ham before landing on the floor. Grrr...not a great start to using the product. Actually I learned in time I like using it to cover otherwise open bowls. But with glass lids for casseroles and plastic lids for other leftovers I don't use very much wrap and I needed some for plastic wrap techniques...so I didn't buy it again either!

Gosh... I love Press n Seal! I use it all the time in the kitchen. On the other hand I hate Saran Wrap, it sticks to nothing! I never thought of using Press n Seal for crafting though. I checked out that video. I'm so doing that! LOL

I'm with you, SWLady! I love it in the kitchen! I was so bummed to find I picked up the wrong box last time I shopped and got the regular Saran Wrap. Any crafty uses for that? Haha! I'm off to watch the videos. Thanks! I haven't used it to craft with yet.

I only buy Saran Cling PLUS, and I am disappointed if I buy the wrong box.
There are crafty ways to use the cling wrap, like on a watercolor background before it dries, or the same thing on an alcohol ink background like I did in my last ATC?.
