There's just something amazing about decoupaging. It is the ultimate eco-friendly craft. I love finding old boxes, glasses, candle holders, and other forgotten treasures and using decoupage to turn them into a completely new things. Mod Podge is an amazing all in one glue, sealer, and finish that literally has more uses than I can think of. It is a fast drying product that is water based, so it's super easy to clean up. It's non-toxic so not only can I feel good about using it, I can feel good about letting the kids use it too.
Mod Podge Rocks! Decoupage Your World by Amy Anderson is a craft book that features forty plus projects that all use Mod Podge. The introductory chapter in the beginning of the book gives you a brief overview of what Mod Podge is in case you aren't familiar with it. It also explains the different Mod Podge formulas and what types of projects each one is best suited for. It also shows examples of the types of projects included in the book that you can use each type of Mod Podge for. The introduction also explains how you should prepare the various surfaces and the materials for the best results.
The craft projects themselves are broken down by different types. There are chapters for Wearables, Home Decor, and Holiday projects. Each project includes several photographs of the finished product as well as many step by step photographs of the procedures you'll need to take to create the project. There is a brief description of the project along with a What You'll Need section that lists the supplies required. The What You'll Do section lists the step by step directions you should follow to make the project yourself. All of the necessary templates are located in the back of the book for you to photocopy and cut out. There is also a really neat gallery at the end of the book that shows off some other creations made with Mod Podge along with the crafter's websites so you can see more of their ideas.
