Decoupage Everything!

Decoupage-ing is so easy and fun! It can give new life to any old piece of furniture, house hold item, or even your dog! (just kidding on the last one)
All you need is:

Mod Podge (flat or gloss)
Foam brush
A plastic container
Clear glaze spray (I like Krylon because its non-yellowing)

Step 1: Cut out your desired pattern or picture
This can be ANYTHING! Family pictures, magazine clippings, announcements in the newspaper, text from a book, anything!

Step 2: Apply a layer of Mod Podge to whatever surface your are decoupage-ing with a foam brush. Place the picture onto the surface and smooth out any air bubbles or wrinkles.

Step 3: Apply more layers of Mod Podge, waiting 15-20 minutes between coats. Your can find this at most craft stores such as Michaels, Walmart, etc. Note: For tiles I apply 5 layers

Step 4: Once everything is dry, spray a layer of clear glaze onto the surface to reduce tackiness and for an extra protective finish.

That’s it! It’s so simple and can look great. Have fun Decoupage-ing!
