New Craft

I decided to make decoupage tiles. After going to 3 different stores that were completely out of Mod Podge, I landed at Michaels who did have some but I broke down and bought something else which was cheaper and I had a 50% off coupon. Turns out, it works just as good. Lucky Me! I will have to come back and let everyone know what it's called. Anyway, I went to Home Depot and bought 15 almond colored 4x4 tiles for .13 each. What a deal! I also bought 2 different sheets of orange polka dot scrapbook paper at Michaels. Here is what I made. And Yes, that is UT (University of Tennessee) Orange. Go VOLS!! My Alma Mater.


Cute huh? Well, my first one was not so good looking, so it is not pictured here! I am hiding the evidence. Anyway, I have decided to use my wedding photos and make coasters for everyone for Christmas. My husband Brian and I just got married, honeymooned, remodeled our kitchen, floors and bath, and bought a new car in the past 9 months so Christmas money is tight. I can make a set of 4 personalized coasters for around $2. Deal! And who doesn't love a handmade gift? I will upload them when I finish!! What do you think? Etsy worthy maybe?
