Discover the Possibilities of Mod Podge!
Supplies:
A bland object you want to spruce up (nearly any surface works)
Mod Podge (referred to below as MP)
Top Layer such as fabric, tissue paper, scrapbook paper, etc.
Brush or sponge
Well ventilated work area
A little creativity
Tip: Remember to
work in a well ventilated area!
Directions:
Find something that
needs a face lift. It can be made of wood, glass, card
board, particle board, metal... well nearly anything.
Apply the MP generously
to the object as well as your top layer material, then
glue them together.
Tip: Don't apply
the MP to a huge area that will dry before you're able
to get it covered. You want to have your top layer
material applied before the MP starts drying.
Smooth out any air
bubbles.
Apply some more MP on
top of your top layer material.
Optional: For a
textured look, apply MP thickly and imitate artist's
brush strokes or stippling with
sponge.
If you have more area
to cover, then continue to work in sections until it's
complete.
Allow the MP to dry
about 15-20 minutes.
