Neighborhood Parade and How to Mod Podge on Canvas

Living near a high school has it’s advantages like neighborhood homecoming parades.  It was delayed for 2 weeks because we had a flood.  We only live 5 houses from the street the parade starts on and the kids love it because of all the candy that is thrown.

It is always themed.  This year’s theme was 70s and 80s. 

I thought I would share some photos with you.

MOD PODGE UPDATE

I did an update on my Bathroom Art Gone Wrong  post.  Amy from Mod Podge Rocks gave me some tips on how to use it on canvas and I wanted to share them with you.  Go here to see the tips and get a link to her blog.

I will be adding more front porch decorating posts this weekend.  I love going to buy pumpkins at the pumpkin patches.  I found some pretty ones and made them even prettier with a simple and inexpensive idea.
