Mod Podge Project

I used and empty formula can for this project, but you can use about anything. Pick out the scrapbook paper you like, some ribbon, jewels, flowers, buttons, whatever you like to add spice.

Use a glue stick to stick the edge in the place you want. You can rip the coordinating paper on an edge and over lay it on top of your other paper.

Add the Mod Podge before any of your other elements. Wait 5-10 minutes in between coats, maybe do 2 or 3. Use a sponge or paint brush to apply thin layers.


Finally add your finishing touches with a glue gun. There you have it- simple and sheek!

Burp Cloths

These burp cloths are so fun to make and personalize!

Step one: Buy cute flannel material.

Step two: Lay out your two pieces of fabric nice and straight, patterns facing each other. Then iron.

Step three: Pin all the sides and sew inside out.

Step four: Make sure to leave one side open so you can turn it back the right way. Then sew the last edge (or all the way around again) in a zig zag design...and thats it.

You can make these any size you prefer. I like rectangles so they can drape over my shoulder.

Name Frames

Customize your child's bedroom in a very affordable way! You can us any size frames you'd like, I recommend something inexpensive since you're just removing the whole back part. Get any kind of ribbon; I regret using plain green- i may look for something cute with a pattern once I decide on my paint color for the walls. You can give the effect of ''hanging'' the frames with ribbon, or you can just glue the ends on the back side. Find a fun font and stick your letters on the glass. And walla you're done. It's that easy. It would also be fun to do your families last name and hang this up in your living room or somewhere in your house.
