Mod Podge Tin
So my 2nd new addiction is Mod Podge! How can you not LOVE this stuff! It is just way too easy! I was debating what to put Aly's birthday bow collection in and played around with a few different ideas when I remembered...I have that super cute star tin! I received a Christmas gift in this tin a few years back and knew I could find something cool to do with it! That's when the Mod Podge comes in! I went to the scrapbook paper stack and started ripping! I wanted a very random design with bright colors! Personally I think it turned out great! Aly even hugged the tin so I'd call that a success! Here's a mini tutorial:Step One: Find a cool tin, grab some scrapbook paper.Step Two: Rip up your scrapbook paper and grab your Mod Podge.(Since the...

So fun! Love ...
