Mod Podge Mayhem - Fridge Magnets

Ready for some Mod Podge Mayhem?  If you pulled together the supplies I mentionedhere, you're set.  If not, here's a reminder of what you need:

1. Fabric Mod Podge
2. Regular Mod Podge 
3. Applicator (sponge or brush)
4. Large wooden clothespins (available at Michael's for $1)
5. Magnet strip
6. Fabric scraps

To get started, get your scraps to manageable sizes.  I consider a manageable size to be approximately one half inch larger than my finished size all the way around the shape.  Apply Fabric Mod Podge and let dry.

Trim your fabric to size.  For this project, I chose to cover the top portion of the clothespin above the indentation where the spring fits.

Use a medium/fine sandpaper or an emery board to rough up the paint.  This will make a better bond.  Apply regular Matte Mod Podge and adhere your fabric.  Let dry.  Apply one or two top coats of Mod Podge, drying between coats.

Now is the time to add your finishing touches.  Glitter glue, Sparkle Mod Podge, buttons, beads, whatever you want.

Cut the magnetic strip and adhere it to the back.  If you purchased adhesive backed magnetic strip, simply peel off the paper backing and press the magnet strip to the back of the clothespin.  And you're done!  Quick and easy.  Just the way I like my Mod Podge.
