mod podge

I have recently become obsessed with the combination of Mod Podge and tissue sewing patterns. Mod Podge, in case you are not familiar, is
Mod Podge® is the original all-in-one glue, sealer and finish. From fashion accessories to wall art, furniture and more, only Mod Podge offers so many creative possibilities. Discover inspiring project ideas, helpful how-tos and all the reasons why Mod Podge is the decoupage glue of choice!

It seems to work really well with tissue paper so sewing patterns are great to use with it! And being life-long seamstress, I just like looking at all the little words and darts and dotted lines. Anyway, I have covered a few things like boxes and I experimented with some Tiny Little Bitsys and even did a Sewing Pattern Poster for an Etsy Treasury.

But it wasn't until I found these little paper-mache birdhouses that I came up with this idea: Vintage Sewing Pattern Birdhouse Ornament. (I wish I had a shorter name but this is it for now). I sold the first two right after listing, yay!

This is my favorite, sold already though:

I just love the children's faces on these, so sweet and innocent looking
