Decoupage

Today was like one of those summer days as a kid, just playing.

Day and I had seen some decoupaged paper bags in a shop last week and I spent today cutting up pages in old magazines and gluing pieces on a bag, then coating the bag with Elmer's.  Tomorrow I'll spray it with polyurethane and maybe add some more elements.

I had planned to write this afternoon, but the quiet room made me want to make something tangible, something I could finish in an afternoon.

So here it is, voila!

Tomorrow Mike and I are going to weave a bunch of old neckties into an antique rocking chair.

I feel like I'm at summer camp!
