Self-made Mod Podge

Lana Red Self-made Mod Podge

Links of entry

Mod Podge is the brand name of a glue that is widely used in decoupage and that works at the same time as a kind of varnish.
Because it’s not cheap I’ve been of course interested in the self-made Mod Podge ;-)

Note: In the tutorial she says the following: “I’ve read that the homemade version can give a yellow glow after a couple of years and doesn’t hold as long as the real podge.”

I presented an orange peel box before, but because I’ve found better basic instructions (English Google translation), because it’s time for oranges again and this here is painted and not cut out I decided to make this second entry ;-)

I’ve seen a tutorial for a cute gift wrapping from woven Space invaders and thought immediately: it must be possible to decorate an Advent calendar with them!

It is ;-)

 

For the number I used paper from an Christmas ad and for the background plain printer paper.

Here you have all numbers, enjoy :))
