Introducing Shannon from Madigan Made.

I'm so tickled to have Shannon from Madigan Made as a new guest poster here on Mod Podge Rocks. She's amazing. And don't worry, the Man Podgers haven't gone away. I love them still - we are one big happy family. "Madigan Podger" doesn't sound good, so we'll just call her Shannon. Though what about "Modigan Podge?" Never mind.

Shannon is such a great Mod Podger that it's a huge honor to have her posting here. Let me show you some examples of her wonderful work:




You see? Isn't she delightful? I hope you are looking forward to Shannon's first post on Thursday, and in the meantime, please follow Madigan Made on Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter. The girl has got great taste!

Vintage wood table numbers.

If you have a wedding or party coming up soon with a rustic theme, you are going to love these vintage wood table numbers. They were created using the inkjet transfer process that you may have seen before. In fact, these might be cool in another DIY project, not just for a wedding or party. What would you do with them? To learn the technique, visit the tutorial.

Cute no-sew cloth gift tags.

Are you a no-sew kind of a person? I can sew, but sometimes I just want to make it easy on myself, since I have to get the sewing machine out from a closet. I completely appreciate these no-sew chalkboard gift tags made with chalk cloth (which I had never heard of), felt and Mod Podge. While these were used at Christmas, they could also be made with any colors for any time of year. And the best part? Just wipe them clean and use them again.

Vintage print side tables.

Looking to add a vintage touch to your decor? These faux woodgrain floral side tables are just what you need. They are actually stools, but I am one of those people that likes little stools as side tables next to the bed (I have a green one now). Whether you use them for a side table or a stool, the vintage graphics add a bit of pretty to your home decor. Visit dottie angel for the tutorial.
