Box
Ok, I've got another question for you guys.
Ok, I had an old Nokia phone box which I turned into a box for my beads, string, etc. I covered the box in newspaper paper and then painted over with black paint on the outside and red paint on the inside. The paint is just some my dad had in his workplace. When it dies it looks very shiny, like coated with varnish or something. I then glued some pictures I printed. Thing is, I want to put something on top of it so that the pictures don't come off or fade or anything. I can't use varnih because the ink from the printer won't take it. so, my question [after all trhis rambling] is if there are any sprays or something I can use, something you don't have to apply using a brush because if not the ink will smear. Any ideas?
And here, pictures of the boz. Sorry if they are a big big.

I can't seem to be able to turn it the right way round, sorry Y_Y
