DIY MOD PODGE


As Modge Podge is used in all types of crafts, I found a tutorial over at Instructables user nkeda14 on how to make cheap homemade Modge Podge interesting and something to try some time.

It sound fairly simple; just combine 1 1/2 c flour, 1/4 C of a sugar, 1/4 of oil (veg or olive) and 1 cup water over low to medium heat 5-10 mins stirring constantly, without bringing to a boil until the desired consistency is obtained,, adding flour or water as need or oil if looking for a higher varnish and store in a glass jar. 
I don't know what the shelf life on this might be so if I try it, I would halve the recipe and try it on a small project.

Ride-Thru Water Sprinkler

This ride-thru sprinkler was made from around $11 in materials and a bit of ingenuity 

My son would have loved this when he was little so I am putting it on my projects list for in the future when I hope to have grandchildren.
