Yipeee!! Welcome to Day One of the Creative Chicks Parade – it’s Mod Podge Mayhem!! I hope you have your projects ready to share because I am looking for inspiration with the Mod Podge!
I have to admit that I’m a bit of a Mod Podge amateur – I’ve only used it on two projects – one being a life-sized puzzle of a kitten that I hung up in my purple bedroom during my elementary school years . . . and the other being these super-sized monogram letters that are decorating the girls’ bedrooms. To decorate these paper mache letters, I simply traced them onto the back of cardstock, cut out the tracing, and used Mod Podge to paste the paper on top of the letter. After waiting for it to dry, I lightly sanded the edges of the paper so that it would neatly blend in and then slapped on a few more coats of Mod Podge over the top. When the letter was dry, I added a cluster of scrapbook embellishments including paper flowers, decorative brads, and ribbon.
That’s it! These letters add a punch of color and fun – you should give them a try!!
AND…since I have a big ‘ol jug of Mod Podge leftover, I am thinking that it would be fun to make a custom letter for a couple of you super readers! Just leave a comment and your name is in the hat! I will be selecting winners next week!

I spent all day Monday watching the Hoarders marathon and cleaning up my craft room, so did not get to post. I would love to win a letter. w
We have A, L, K, V here, or D for Dogs, or N for Newfs, or a great big dollar sign would be great to remind me to stick to budget!
