Mod Podge Really Does Rock

I discovered this blog called Mod Podge Rocks which is all about, you guessed it, Mod Podge!  I have been reading this blog for a while just dying to try out this crazy hobby of decoupaging that my mom and mom-in-law both say, "I did that growing up!"

I finally decided what my first project for Kidspired Creations was going to be and let me tell you, I will be Mod Podging a lot more items!  Having never decoupaged before, I decided to start with the blog's link to "Mod Podging for Dummies" or more nicely put, "Learn How/Tips."  She shows step by step videos that truly help out us visual learners.

And thanks to her videos, here is what I made!
 
Here's how it was done...
Paper face down over my wooden plaque.
Use a crayon and lightly color over the edges, the real edge will appear darker.
No need to paint the whole thing, it will be covered in paper.
Here is when I watched the videos so that I could do this...
Now they are ready for their hooks!
