*Blush* Got it all wrapped up....now to dry. Whistling
Sharon the amount of mix was so right on...perfect amount. However, I wound up with a pile of torn paper towels! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Saving them for later! Also I didn't think about having to set each piece aside to "drip" until I had a puddle. All in all I think I would do it again with the "greats" (7 yr olds).

Ugh. I forgot about the drips and the puddles. Sorry!!! I kept mine on that red towel that shows in some of the pictures, forgot to mention it.

Looking great, Sheila!!
Good for you.

And I ended up with a pile of paper towel strips too. I eventually used them for little messes Big Grin

But it's going to look sooooooooooooooo good!
Let it get completely dry before you start gluing it, OK?

Will do, need to do some house cleaning prior to having family over for Thanksgiving, so too busy to paint it now. In fact I may wait until the family is here and get the two older ones (7yo) to help paint some of it.
Question.... does it absorb paint after it dries?

Not really, Sheila. The Mod Podge acts much like a sealer. I didn't have any trouble painting, the paint stayed where I put it pretty well.
