I have been wanting to work on this old girl for a long time. She was old when I picked her up at a junk store and I have used her hard for display over the years. So it was time she had a new look ~

The body is like the carpet of an old car so stripping her was not possible. Yes, I could have sewn a new cover for her but I wanted to try doing a Mod Podge tissue layering technique on her. I want her to come out looking more like distressed plaster mold. I think it will look great for displaying clothes for my etsy shop.

The first several layers are done. I ran out of goop, of course. Here’s what she looks like now. I am so excited to give her a tea stained look when I am done with all the layers and maybe some vintage lace and the bottom and around her neck ~ we’ll see ….

Just waiting for momma to go get some more Mod Podge
