I had to share the "secret" to some of my easiest projects - MOD PODGE!
Every time I post a picture of something I have mod podged...I get lots of emails with questions, so I thought I would share on here! I have covered glass, plastic and wood so far with mod podge using fabric and scrapbook paper. SUPER easy, and always looks great. Just start by "gluing" the fabric/paper down...smooth it out with a brush or your fingers and put a coat of mod podge over the top of your project. You'll end up with a beautiful finish when the mod podge dries. I haven't tried using pictures yet, but I'll let you know how it goes when I get a chance to try it out. :O)
Here are a few pictures of the various things I've tried...
A couple years ago, I actually poked tiny holes in real eggs and blew the inside out. ha ha. Crazy. I used a paper napkin to decoupage that beautiful damask. Because of the tedious process and my impatience, I only ended up with 2 eggs. :O)
Brooke's Room - The B is just a wood letter covered with some scrap fabric.

Old Dresser - painted and used fabric & furniture mod podge on the drawers.
Christmas Ornaments covered in scrapbook paper.
I also used a glitter spray paint to add some extra shine.

Easter eggs covered in pages from an old hymnal. This time I used plastic eggs instead of real eggs. SO MUCH EASIER. :O)
