End Table... Before & After

I wanted to share the small end table that I made for the Craft Room. I had a lot of emails about it. It was not purchased that way so I figured that I would let you in on the How-To!


It all started with this end table that I bought at Goodwill for $10. 

$10 was a bit too much in my opinion, but it was solid and in good condition. I had other plans for it,  but in the end, I decided that it would be a great addition to e.b. designs studios.

There is nothing that a little paint and scrapbook paper can not make fabulous!

After I sanded it down I gave it a nice coat of black Spray Paint.  It needed a good primer (and it was just easier to use spray paint). 

I then used Green Apple Rustoleum spray paint for the top color.  Once that was dry, I touched up the black with actual paint and brush. 

I then took 2 sheets of zebra scrap paper and cut them in half. I used ModPodge to secure them to the table and  a craft blade to cut around the edges. 

I gave it a nice coat of ModPodge. After allowing it to dry completely, I gave the entire table a few coats of poly for extra protection. 

All done! It was super easy and I LOVE the new look!

guess who is painting her bedroom (and a jewelry cabinet) this weekend? that would be me. with a little (a lot) of help from Dawn. It looks like you also painted your craft room. Or did you just take these photos in your bedroom?
