Get your craft on: Fabric covered flower pot

Not willing to let ModPodge get the best of me (ahem), I tried another glue project recently.  Inspired by this tutorial, I bought a paper flower pot and decided to make a little pencil holder for Wavey.

I don't really need to go step-by-step here other than stating the obvious that I used MP to glue the fabric to the pot.  So easy that even I can do it.

You'd be proud that I even notched the fabric that folds in before gluing it all down.  A feat of crafting patience for me:

Here is a do-as-I-say/not-as-I-do moment:  See that big blob of MP?  I should have smoothed that out.

And the final product!

Look how excited Dora is for me!

    So cute! I've had a fear of mod podge for a while now. I guess it's just my ignorance getting in the way. Maybe I'll have to give this a try!

    Thanks, everyone! I used the "outdoor-use" MP for this one and I regret it. Waaay to thick. It was really stinky and left a weird texture to it. Stick with the regular MP!
