Number Puzzle Redo with Modpodge

 I love these things. I can't explain why.

The wooden number puzzle had some wear to it.  I saw this as an opportunity to make them even more colorful.  My daughter loves these too, though she's still learning you can do more than just take the numbers off and spread them throughout the living room.

With some Modpodge, and scrapbook paper, we got this:

 Did I mention a lot of cutting! shew!

I got the paper for $0.10 cents at Joann Fabrics.

 What do you think?

Wedding Gift... Personalized Decorations!

 My friend Missy, pictured here, is painting the R that she traced from the Wooden Name she is making.  Our Friends Mandy and Matt just got married last Saturday. congrats!

 Here's the bag.  Turned out so cute~!

 Next we painted the edges of the letters with acrylic black paint.

 Then we Mod Podged the Scrapbook paper, that we cut out, to the letters. ....

I had a little time, so I did these two letters as well.  I liked them both!

 Close up of the red texture.

 I love how this turned out. It matches their living room. The black is a velour and the red has a nice design to it. Not overbearing. Awesome! Missy packed it in her bag with the personalized R on it.
Sweet!

Congrats Matt and Mandy Reynolds on your Marriage!  As soon as the pictures are up of their wedding on Amy and Jeremiah Photography, I'll let you know!

Mod Podge Scrapbook Wood Letter Tutorial

I'm gonna show you how to do this yourself!

All you need is:
1 wooden letter (mine was prepainted from Joann's 50% off!)
Pencil or pen
Scrapbook paper, just enough for your letter
Mod Podge
1 Foam Brush
Oh, and scissors!

Trace around letter, right facing letter and paper.

Brush on Mod Podge onto letter making sure the whole top is covered.  Immediately place cut out letter on top and press.  Smooth out any bubbles.

Let dry 20 Minutes.  Brush Mod Podge over the whole letter. Careful not to over brush.  If it bubbles, Do not touch! It should smooth out on it's own as it drys.

There ya go! So easy.
Mod Podge is so awesome. It's a glue and a finish. So many uses!
