I've been wanting to try out decoupaging ever since I read Monogram Momma's blog (or was it -- so many blogs do great crafting) giving directions. I had not ever tried this craft before and thought it sounded interesting. I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a wooden trashcan, scrapbook paper, Mod Podge, and an exacto knife. It was a lot of fun to do and didn't turn out half bad for my first attempt. Next I bought a blackboard at a garage sale that had decorative fruit painted on the wood paneling around the board. I then used some wallpaper from our family room and decoupaged around the blackboard. I will hang this in my downstairs kitchen next to the family room to use for fun notes. I'm on the lookout for my next decoupage project. No object is safe around me now!
