Transform a Yard Sale Microwave Table for Minimal Work

About 6 years ago, my husband was moving into his own apartment and was needing some furniture to use, but not like the really expensive stuff. He just needed some items that were still in good shape and were useful. He wasn't buying a house at the time and knew that he would want different furniture when that time came.
So where else would he start shopping...YARD SALES!!!! Mark and I were just dating at the time, and I was still living in an apartment at my college. Of course being the DIYer and loving to decorate, I wanted to help out anyways. He didn't mind since that really isn't his thing anyways. So the two of us and his mom started on a fun thrifting adventure one Saturday.
That's when I came across Royal Design Studios and their beautiful selection of furniture stencils. It was the perfect solution to add some color and design to what would have been such a plain and ordinary piece of furniture.
Stencils are so classic and don't have to look outdated. I couldn't wait to try the shattered allover furniture stencil. It seemed simple enough to not be overwhelming for someone who hadn't stenciled much but still has enough design to make it gorgeous.
I hope this transformation has given you some inspiration to shop for bargains and change them yourself with a new technique that you never thought you could do before.
