Here are some of our adventures in modge podge. As you can see
we like to use it on jewelry. All images are glued via thisglourious
substance. Even the lace. See our etsy shop for picture earrings
coming soon!
Last winter my sisters and I rediscovered the glorious art of decoupage. My mother was a big decoupage fan...and she was good at it. She decorated lampshades (I still have them, they are fantastic) and furniture to name a few of her projects. And too finish she would go all out with a professional varnish (shellac?) to make the surface super smooth and durable. Me....I stick with modge podge. It is my go-to craft supply that I believe is a must have for any artist and/or crafter. It is a glue, sealer and finish that comes in matte and glossy and it is non-toxic. You can use it on anything: wood, paper, metal, fabric, canvas...but be careful when applying it to paint or ink, it can make it run. Use a thin coat, let it dry and then apply a heavier one.
I must warn you though, using of modge podge can become addicting.
