ModPodge Craft




Iain's mother made him a nice set of drums using ModPodge, wrapping paper, and cardboard oatmeal containers. ModPodge is that old craft standby that glues, seals, and finishes all kinds of paper craft projects like decoupage, preserving jigsaw puzzles you want to keep as a picture, and covering cardboard tubes to make them fancy. Your child can be involved in saving the containers, choosing the paper, and brushing on the finishing coat. The drums make good containers for small toys, and they are ideal for tower-building. When they get worn out, they're recyclable!
