MOD PODGE

So the coolest stuff ever is mod podge! You can do all sorts of crafts with it. At first I didn't think that I would like it but I decided that I did that is until I saw the price of one of these little bottles. $10 for this measly 8oz bottle I think not! After searching the Internet I decided that I could make my own. So that is what I did. Down below you can find the experiment!

Things you need:
Elmer's glue ( only the white kind) 
An air tight container
rubber band 
1/4 cup of water

 Empty the glue in to your container using the rubber band to secure it (I thought this was a pretty dang good idea and I'm so thrilled I thought of this all by myself!) to the container so that you don't have to hold the bottle while for hours waiting for all the glue to run out.

 After all the glue is emptied out add minimal amounts of water (about 1/4 cup) and shake till your little hearts content to mix up the glue and water.

Viola! now you have pretty dang good mod podge that works like a charm. Remember that in order for it to stay fresh you do need to keep the lid on tight while not in use. 

*There are other recipes out there that have a couple more ingredients to them. I have NOT tried these out but when I do I will update!
