Modge Podge Altered Bangle

Remember this 10p bangle I got in Primark’s reduced bin?
Picture 118
Well I’ve covered in DecoPatch paper and Modge Podge sparkle finish and now it looks like this:-
Altered Bangle
I’ve only put one layer of DecoPatch on so the gold leathery effect of the bangle shows through giving a lovely effect.

I’ve only recently started using Modge Podge, I got a starter pack, which had one small bottle of each finish in it to try.  I am hooked, it dries very quickly and doesn’t run and the various finishes it gives are fantastic, much better and easier than some of the varnishes I have used in the past.

    This is absolutely gorgeous. My daughters have a couple of these bangles that they got ages ago and never wear. Must show them your idea. Thanks. Donna

    Just gorgeous, I never think to do anything with cheap bangles. Think I'll be hitting up Primark this week to see if I can find anything to make as nice as yours!

    Wow....looks fab! I've always wondered what mod podge was. I've seen it in the craft shops but never used it!

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
