16 Pretty Mod Podge Projects

Here are some tips to ensure your mod podge project looks its best!

  • One Layer at a Time. Brush on your mod podge one layer at a time and allow it to dry for at least 20 minutes before adding more.
  • The More Layers, The Better. If you want your project to be really smooth, add more layers of mod podge. It may take 5 or 6 to get a smooth finish.
  • Allow to Cure. Allow your project to cure for about 4 weeks to ensure the mod podge is set and won’t smudge during use.

      I’m pretty sure the first craft I ever did was to decoupage something!

    I used to make these plaster of paris molds, usually ovals with a rounded top, and mod podged Holly Hobby girls on them for my room. I loved it!

    I have a bottle of Mod Podge and I guess because I’m not naturally crafty, I always forget about it! I think I might like to try something with canvas art. Cool ideas, thank you!
