Decoupage Night Stand


This is my daughter's nightstand that we had purchased at a 
garage sale years ago.  

It was a darker brown wood...she painted it white and used
scrapbook paper and her own printed pictures that she made
from online text and tore them and glued 
them onto the top.  

Just using white glue

I wanted to get a good thick clear coat on the top...but didn't make it before
she got a piece wet and it tore.  Easily fixed...just haven't done
it yet.



She also did the drawer front.

As you can tell she is into Paris things and music...

This turned out so cute....it is so much nicer in person.

Re-purposing a Stool

From Broken Stool.....to .....Night Stand

This thing was wobbly and legs wouldn't stay attached to the 
metal frame and the back completely fell off...so
before I threw it on the curb....I thought
we'd try making a night stand out of it.

we had searched high and low at all the thrift stores but
couldn't find a night stand....so this will do for now...

I still have some adjustments to make...but I
don't have any good tools...I just did this
with a hand saw...think I need to take a little more
off the front leg....but I'm afraid to... hee hee
pretty soon when you start doing that...you end up
with no legs on the thing...
