Remember when I showed you some fun thrift store finds.. oh back in September? And I told you I'd be giving this guy a little makeover. Yeah, it took this long to finally do it. Doesn't really help my 'craft room' that was getting drywalled in January is still getting drywalled. Things just are not moving. We just have WAY too many outdoor things we gotta get done (including a veggie garden, sandbox, chalkboard wall, shed and of course, more flowers). So the craft room is on hold. Oh well.
Well, I did finally accomplish what I hoped for with this guy though. He couldn't wait for the craft room. Might I add.. I still HAVE a craft room. It's just not the half finished/under construction room that I told you about. In fact, this room is still unfinished... and cold. So it's not as pretty as I'd like it.
Anyways. Here's how I made this thing new again.
Primed.
Painted a lilac color. Already it's lovely, right!?
I got together my scrapbook paper and mod podge and went to work.
I measured my shelves and cut the paper accordingly.
Mod podged.
Then papered.
Then sealed on a coat of mod podge.
Once it was dry, I sprayed a coat of clear finish over the whole thing.
And it's funky and fun and perfect for my craft room.
Just gotta figure out what's going in it. Either way, it is made over! What do you think!?
I'll add the pics of how it's being used once I know myself.
