Crafty: Toy Trucks

VROOM!!!

A few months back,
I found myself in the dollar section {again ;}
at Target!

And came across these great little wooden trucks :)
At first I thought about letting my daughter paint them,
but then I thought it would be even better
to Mod Podge them with fun paper!
{I plan to use these colors for the next one, to make it extra girly!}

So I just traced the outline of the car on the back of the paper
Cut it out and did extra trimming where it needed!
Since I was planning to use the monkey paper for the sides,
I wanted to make sure it looked like there was
a monkey in the window area :}
Then I just painted the car with Mod Podge 
and attached the paper.
I applied two coats of Mod Podge all over
once all the sides were covered in paper
to give it a good seal!

What do you think?
My daughter LOVES it!

Girls like trucks too,
