Giveaway :: Mod Podge Rocks! by Amy Anderson

I love using Mod Podge (I mean, seriously. You can use it for practically everything!). I was so excited to receive two copies of this fabulous new book Mod Podge Rocks! Decoupage Your World by none other than Amy Anderson - the fabulous blogger (and now author!) of all things Mod Podge at Mod Podge Rocks!.
This book is full of over 40 fabulous ideas - ranging from Wearables to Home Décor to Holiday Projects. The directions are thorough and easy to understand, and the pages are full of beautiful color photos. Lots of inspiration, lots of ideas to DIY or to build on to create your own version of the project. Each project uses one or more Mod Podge products, so you really get to see a lot of ways to use all of their different products.

Last weekend, on our way home from High Point, we stopped at a huge outlet store - with tons of stuff you don't really need ;) Nevertheless, I love looking through outlet stores, flea markets, antique malls, etc. because you never know when you'll find a gem :) I found this fabulous little book in the book section - Flea Market Baby by Barri Leiner and Marie Moss. And for a great price, I just couldn't pass it up. The book is absolutely delightful, with beautiful photographs and writings about finding vintage items to decorate, collect and gift-give for baby. "A must-have retro registry of old-fashioned finds for a new generation" (Flea Market Baby).

And not only are the photographs and writing simply fabulous, the layout (read: graphic design) of the book is wonderfully done- always a breath of fresh air :)

I thought it nicely appropriate to purchase the book with baby on the way, and the fact that I love anything vintage- so of course, a book about baby-related vintage things was great to come across. Although, I probably would still have purchased it even if we didn't have baby on the way - it is just that great of a sweet little book. :)

So, whether or not you do have a baby on the way, this book is a fabulous collection of vintage and kitschy items that bring back memories of a seemingly simpler time. :)
