I received a very nice table from my Mom when she closed her shoe store a few weeks ago. I decided it would be a perfect fit into my new craft room. I was in need of a table to put my sewing machine on and with a large enough work surface to cut fabrics and sew without being confined. It just needed a little TLC.
I have been thinking for a couple of weeks on how to redo it a little. I decided to get out my favorite craft item...Modge Podge (any excuse to use this stuff:). I also took some scrapbooking paper that I already had and got to work. I cut the pieces to fit the top (in a random style) and used the Modge Podge to adhere them to the surface. I then went over the whole top with another layer of Modge Podge and let it dry for two hours. I then put two coats of polyurethane on the top to seal it and make it so I could wipe it down easily.
I think it turned out great! It fits perfectly into my crafty-kind of room. An afternoon project for a total cost of = FREE!! Doesn't get any better than that :)
