To add to the other suggestions on these, what you're basically doing is called decoupage. A craft store should carry something called ModPodge (or a similar brand,) a waterbased product that acts as a glue, sealer & finish. You can apply it to the wood or to the back of cigar bands with a foam brush, and it stays workable for some time. Dries clear, and you can use it to build up a finish as well. Or they also make a product specifically for decoupage finishes. Afterward you ought to be able to apply a polyurethane just like you would a floor.
