UPCYCLING: Storage Jars with Mod Podge Knobs
One can never have enough storage jars in my opinion. I’ve been saving up jars
and love how these bright and cheery jars turned out. They’re the perfect size
for smaller pantry items.

UPCYCLING: Candy Tins to Travel Tins
I’ve saving up these little candy tins so that I could upcycle them into something. I wasn’t sure how I was going to use them but little tins always come in handy.

CELEBRATIONS: Glitter Ornament with Dimensional Magic

Oh... hello December, where did you come from? It's sort of strange to rush into the holiday season when you still have Thanksgiving leftovers in your refrigerator. But here we are and I lucked out and happen to have a holiday ornament post all ready to go. I participated in UCreate's Handmade Ornament Series a few weeks ago and now is a perfect time to reshare my ornament. Of course, I couldn’t resist using a little glitter to start off my holiday crafting season.

UPCYCLING: Shopping bag to teen decor
My son has reached the age where he likes to pick out his own clothes. Long gone are the days of cute matching clothes that I would pick out. He typically likes the beachy surf and skate shop type clothing stores that are everywhere here in Southern California.

Etceteras: artwork from your favorite print

Artwork from your favorite print has been made possible by Shutterfly and Looksi Square.
Over the years I’ve taken lots of pictures. For this blog, family, our home, kid activities, vacations and more. Somewhere along the way, I stopped creating photo albums and just saved the photos to files on my computer or on a disc or flash drive.

Etceteras: introducing mod melts


Back in January when I attended the Craft and Hobby Show, I watched a demonstration of a product called Mod Melts. I’ve been anxiously waiting to try them out and the day has finally come.

Etceteras: mod podge {podgeables and more}

This Mod Podge week has been so fun. On Monday, I made some fun beach glass with Mod Podge and on Wednesday, I reviewed Amy’s new book Mod Podge Rocks and kicked off a giveaway.
Today caps off a podgey week by introducing some great new Mod Podge products by Plaid. Some of the new products include, Mod Podge Wash-Out for Kids, Mod Podge Antique Matte and Mod Podge Super Gloss.


I started with some of the small podgeable shapes. For these pendants, I used some paper that I already had in my stash. Here’s how to make these pendants.
- Lay your podgeable shape on top of your paper.
- Trace around the podgeable shape.
- Cut out your paper.
- Mod Podge the right side of the paper and adhere to the back of the podgeable shape.
- To add interest and dimension, add Mod Podge Dimensional Magic to the top of your shape. I used Dimensional Magic Glitter Gold and Glitter Silver.

This is how your pendant will look right after you add the Dimensional Magic. The Dimensional Magic will become clearer as it dries.

Dimensional Magic is designed to stay on your object. I’ve never worked with this product before and was thrilled at how the product stayed on the Podgeable Shape.

Another fun new Mod Podge product are the Rub-On Transfers. The Rub-On Transfers come in sheets with seasonal and everyday words and phrases. Simply run-on the words you choose and Mod Podge over them.

I used the Dimensional Magic on these clothes pins – I’m seriously loving this product.

For this label, I used another Podgeable Shape without a pre-drilled hole and the Rub-On Transfers.

A piece of vintage ribbon and my new Podgeable label dress up my bead jar.

Besides the products used for these projects, there are many other new Mod Podge products available at Michaels. Or, for more information visit Plaid Crafts.
I hope you enjoyed the Mod Podge week here on homework. As always, thanks for visiting!

Etceteras: beach glass and a mod podge week

Hello creative friends. What better way to kick off summer [or at least the end of the school year in our house] than with some fun beach glass and a Mod Podge week.

Beach or sea glass is typically found in small bits along the beaches. They were once bottles, jars or other glass objects that have been tumbled around the ocean creating smooth, frosty pieces of colored or clear/white glass. I know you would probably never find an intact beachified bottle or vase lying along the shore but we can pretend these bottles were just plucked from the water.

- To make summer beach glass bottles, you’ll need: Mod Podge, water, white paint, dirt or sand and glass bottles, jars or vases.
- Mix together 1 part Mod Podge, 2 parts water and 1 part white paint. Pour into your bottle and swirl it around until it coats the entire bottle.
- Add a pinch of dirt or sand to the paint mixture by carefully sprinkling it into the bottle.
- Turn your bottles upside down on paper towels and let dry. Check the bottles every 5-10 minutes and wipe away the extra paint.

Once the bottles are almost dry, turn them right side up to finish the drying process.

For more opaque glass use more paint. You can also opt to not add the dirt for a cleaner look.

Add pieces of coral or shells to complete your summer beach look.



Stay tuned this week for more Mod Podge fun. I have new Mod Podge products to share with you, a book review and a fabulous giveaway.
Thanks for visiting.
