MY OWN PINSPIRED CREATION
I bought a cheap, metal magnetic noticeboard for my Craft Room. To make it prettier, I Mod Podged wrapping paper onto it. Even using a brayer, I had a lot of trouble getting the paper flat, and it has a LOT of wrinkles, especially on one of the bottom corners :-( I didn't want to rip it all off and try again, so I fumed over it for a few days!! Then I fumed EVEN MORE when one of the cats knocked over my newly prettyfied Charity Shop vase!! When I'd calmed down, and was working on finishing a different project, I decided to re-use the materials I had used on the now smashed vase, to disguise the wrinkles on the noticeboard.
Once my noticeboard was looking so pretty, I didn't want to spoil it with ugly, plain metal magnets. So I found some big buttons (the magnets are large!!) and glued those onto the magnets - much prettier :-)
MY VERDICTI'm going to have to practice getting my Mod Podging smooth!!
WHAT I'D DO DIFFERENTLY NEXT TIME
I don't think I'd change much, as my "mistakes" made me add even more prettiness to my noticeboard and I like it a lot more than if it were just covered in the wrapping paper :-)
