Flea Market Find

Modge Podge Rocks...I know this isn't an original thought, but it really is true.  A while back, I made a shadow box for Kate.  She (and I) collect these small Hagen Renaker glass animals.  I modge podged vintage paper dolls all over a shadow box for which she can display her collection.

Recently, at the flea market, I found a new shadow box for 3 bucks.  I snagged it.

At first,  I thought I would make another for Kate as her collection has grown too big to fit comfortably in the small boxes.  But after stepping on one of Henry's superhero figures one too many times, I remembered seeing a great idea somewhere...I would make him his own shadow box where he can house his superhero collection.  I would hang it low to the ground so that he can play with it.  And this shadow box will have naturally, comic books.
