Made By Me, For My Hubby

My husband loves his comic books anything Marvel and DC, full of awesomeness : ) Dont we all. Me and my daughter were having such a fun day we decided to make something for daddy. We had a cominc book preview that we had got at our favorite comic book store Maximum comics, if you live in Las Vegas area check it out, they have great customer service, and the owner J is so nice.
We had a blank piece of wood, Mod Podge, glow in the dark paint and a comic, we went through the comic and found the perfect Hulk picture. I cut it out and got to work.
I stained the piece of wood dark cherry so it looked really nice, I wanted it to look like a cool book only he would have. After satining the wood I let it dry, then added some Mod Podge to it and the picture. I smoothed it out and added more Mod Podge to hold it in place, then when it driend I added some glow in the dark paint to his eyes and on the words HULK. It came out AMAZING totally looked like a book, and even better it glowed.
When he got home we gave him his gift and he was extatic, he had never seen anything like it, he loved it! Especially because Me and our daughter made it for him, he found a special place for it in the house.... I'm so glad we could make his day, I'll b making more to add to his new collection.. Cant wait, I'll keep you all posted on my next projects.

(These would be perfect for any man cave or boys room, easy and inexpensive to make.)

Love Jen
