Mod podging the world one project at a time

Here is my latest project.  Newly painted dresser with fabric mod podged to the drawers.  We found this dresser for a dollar at a garage sale. We had been looking for one for a little while for Little Girl's room because what we have now (a small entertainment center) isn't working for all the clothes she has.  So we thought a dresser would be better.  Other than a few things that need to be fixed I think it's a good dresser and a great find!


I completely forgot to take a before picture.  But the drawer above that isn't painted is the original color of the dresser. 





Overall I think it turned out well.  I'm a little disappointed because some of the fabric that I Mod podged frayed and the brush I used dragged it on to the fabric so there's little black things now glued to it.  I'm deciding if I can hide them with paint or not.  I don't want to paint it and have it look worse.  So we'll see.



Also I have been wanting to post about my wreath!  I decided I wanted to make a wreath but I don't want a million of them so I'm making decorations for each season that will go with one wreath.  Here are my fall and Halloween decorations.  That's all I have so far.


 Here's kind of how I made it. Instead of buying a foam wreath I just took cardboard and cut out several different sized circles and glued them together.  (the picture is a little farther down.  I'm too lazy to try and figure out how to get the pictures to be ordered right)









I decided the BOO that I made out of cardboard is a little too homemade looking so I want to make one with wood.  Anyways, those are the projects I've done so far.  There are more to come!
