I’m completely breaking the rules, but that shouldn’t surprise you. I bet you can guess that rule breaking is totally how I roll, but let me note that this attitude never applied to parents or school. Those were two things I didn’t mess with. Right, mom?
So how am I breaking the rules, you ask? This isn’t a Mod Podge project – it’s a Stiffy project. A fox lamp actually, by Katie of Matsutake. But I hope you will forgive me, because Stiffy is Mod Podge’s country cousin. I also know that you are laughing about the name right now, but this is serious!
I can always count on Katie to do the coolest crafts, and apparently you can always count on me for some serious alliteration. This fox lamp is amazing, and I want you to see the full tutorial here.
Blogger who loves the color blue and sock monkeys. You can find me in public easily— I'm wearing glasses and lots of stripes.
So cool!!! I am headed to check out the tutorial.
The lamp is just too cute! Reminds me of the days of hardening with varnish and the smell! I bet this stiffy is great. Thanks for the link.
Mod Podge…Stiffy …as long as i get alittle messy its alllll gooood
I love this and the tutorial looks like something even I can do! Thanks for posting!!!
Hmmm. I commented yesterday but it never showed up. This stuff could be exactly what I’ve been needing to stabilize some fabric for a project. Where do you find it? I’ve never seen it before. Also, do you know if it holds up to washing or does it wash out?
Thanks!!
years ago I use to stiffen fabric over plastic forms to create hats and such
Thanks everyone!
Big Bird – you can find Stiffy at Michaels or AC Moore. And unfortunately you can’t wash it, or it will come out.
