I'm re-posting this tutorial for using one-step crackle and antiquing glaze. Amanda used it on a flower pot with decoupaged scrapbook paper - I'm always saving pretty pictures out of magazines for projects just like this! Really the only new supplies you need (if you don't have them already) is some decoupage glue, one-step crackle, craft paint & glaze medium & UV Resistant clear coat (can be skipped if your finished project is an indoors item). Then just start gathering stuff around the house & tearing up old magazines, newspapers, tissue paper or what ever! I have all kinds of crap I could dress up with this technique.
