Hi Pam, That is a very nice update on the bucket. I've got a pretty big collection of 1950s original waterslide decals myself, but they don't slide off as well as they did in the 1950s as age has made them brittle. I usually cut them off and use ModPodge under and over them. The good thing about that old paper was that the clear parts did disappear on the object. The 1970s mushroom fad was somewhat cartoonish, as I'm sure you know, but the image you used is timeless. I love it.

This turned out so pretty! I love the mushrooms and I've never heard of water slide decals and need to go see what they are all about! Great project!

Ok, that Varathane with the sponge applicator is a GAME CHANGER. It reminds me of the shoe polish with the sponge applicator that I used to use as a kid! How cool is that?

I am intrigued by the water slide decal! Never tried one but I think I have to try now! The mushroom decal was perfect on the bucket!
