Modge Podge Madness

I hate throwing away little pictures of my children even if they are just the proof image on a photo order, so I've solved my problem and made some fun things along the way.

Project 1

Instead of tossing the little 1x1.5" proof image that came with my daughter's school pictures, I modge  podged it onto a wooden cube.





After it had dried, I hot glued a few ribbon pieces* for a present shaped ornament for the tree. 


Project 2

'Tis the time of year for photobooks and there is usually an invoice with a small image of the cover of your book on it. Cut out small faces and modge podge them to a flat clear marble. 


After they dry, glue a magnet to the back and you have fridge magnets with faces***. 



Project 3 

Save the Christmas cards from friends that include photos of their family and children. Next year you can make a gift tag/ornament for their family with those photos and a little modgepodge, paper and ribbon. 

Happy Holidays!!!

** Tip - Use your fire over a sink in case you start a larger fire than intended.
***Warning -  Keep small magnets away from babies and toddlers. Internal injury is a possibility if swallowed.
