I pinned a similar table a long time ago & it took me months to get around to doing this project.
I loved the table because it was different, bright & cost me next to NOTHING!!
I found this Coffee Table on the Side of the Road,
(You know how I can't resist picking things up for free, remember the Wooden Play Kitchen)
I was planning on using it in our Pool Area,
So I thought that bright colours would look best.
I went to Bunnings and picked out the Colours & Size of the Sample Cards.
Make sure you get a lot more than you think you need.
The table was very dirty.
I gave it a clean.
I love that Daddy Moz has lots of tools.
This sander is cordless & has rechargeable batteries.
After a light sand
Then a clean off
I already had this can of spray paint, but they are only about $10.
First coat done.
These are the colours I choose.
I love the names on the cards.
Some of my colours were;
Hide & Seek
Pool House (Convenient)
Prom Queen
Passionfruit Poppy
Lime Leaf
Paparazzi Pink

(I have a soft spot for Alliteration words - the words start with the same letter. Passed on from Mum).
Missing one somehow!!
Kids Maybe...
I started to Mogde Podge Glue the cards down, but they started to curl up.
It was a warm day.
So I decided to use doubled side tape to get them in place.
Then I Mogde Podge Glued all over the whole table.
So, I know that the photos aren't taken next to the pool.
It's been raining & freezing here Down Under.
But don't worry, I'm sure the table will get many Pina Colada's placed on it!!
DONE!
I LOVE IT!!!!

ReplyDeleteHow fun! Man, I wish I can buy Mod Podge where I live...
ReplyDeleteDo a Google search for the product...you'll be amazed at where you can find it - and make sure you double check those prices...some places seem to have a good deal but charge a small fortune for shipping!
DeleteThis is super cute! Totally adding to my DIY pin board. First time visitor but following now :) Feel free to swing by for a visit sometime...
