Knockoff Mod Podge Recipe

Yes folks, I am sharing a knockoff mod podge (aka decoupage medium) recipe. And this knockoff stuff works amazingly well, just like the real stuff. But....this knockoff recipe is better because it will save you some bucks. So, let's get this knockoff started.

You will need some white all-purpose glue, a mason jar with a lid (or any larger container with a lid), and some water. No pics to share because you won't need them. And this is what you do:

1. Empty the glue into the mason jar
2. Fill the glue bottle with water
3. Shake the glue bottle
4. Empty the watery-glue into the mason jar
5. Shake the jar, with the lid on

Done! Go forth and knockoff-mod-podge something! You can thank me later for all the money you are going to save.

Here is a dining table that I used the knockoff recipe on. This table was free from the tornado house and had a laminate top that was chipped. I roughly patched the chipped side and roughed up the top a little by sanding it.

Then I used the knockoff recipe to add old dictionary pages to the top. I also painted the legs a fun blue with leftover miss-matched paint.

Not too bad for a free table, free dictionary, free leftover paint, and knockoff mod podge. Total costs was about 50 cents....yep, 50 cents! Just paid for the glue. This recipe makes me so happy - who doesn't love a DIY recipe for super cheap?!

Happy 4th y'all!!
