Modge Podge Magazine Files

This is one of those projects that has been on my to-do list for a long time. I finally got to Ikea for these wooden magazine boxes.

I traced scrapbook paper to fit the sides and fronts and backs. And glued them on with Modge Podge.

Then I filed and sanded down the edges for the top layer of Modge Podge to adhere better and also because I wanted to ink the edges.

This one is for recipe magazines or pages, so I liked the cupcakes on this paper.

Then I inked the edges and applied the Modge Podge over the entire box.

A happy little project! See my side bar for parties I'll link to this week!
