Mod Podge bookshelf

I had this old bookshelf that I used to keep my cookbooks in and decided to give it a makeover since my hubby wanted all those old magazines that I have out of the house.I hate to part with them and took a deep breath and cleared them away and decided to keep something from them.Most of the magazines were from Better Homes and I love the outdoor look so I started cutting pages and using the Mod Podge after cleaning out the shelf. The sad part is that no matter what I did, there were still some ripples.I am not finished with  the shelf yet.I still have to add to it.Hopefully, it will be soon and I can post some pics on it.
