Pretty Table
So if you scroll back on my page you’ll see I already painted this little table before - but my mam was fed up of it so I took it off her hands and painted it and added gorgeous wall paper and now she wants it back!!!!
one of my favorite fusion mineral paints
Previously painted in sacred sage!
My “painting” stool fitted perfect to get it off the ground to paint the legs
I always tip the paint into a tuber ware dish to make it easier to roll!
I love these videos
Frog tape for the drawer
Coat number one
Number one complete
Second coat
There is great coverage in fusion mineral paint
The top ready for the new paper!!
How gorgeous are these handles from tk maxx
Here’s the paper my aunt gave me she had leftover
My placemat fitted perfectly into the top of the table so I used it as a template to cut around
Close up of cutting
I put the paper in and shoved it into the table to mark the exact size
Cut around the edges
Using pva glue
I put some all over the top
Fitted in the paper
Using my “painting” stool again to add weight while it dried
Screw on the handle
Position it centre
This is the finished piece
Mam then went to the local glass store and got a piece of glass made for it so she doesn’t have to worry about messing up the paper!!!

Really like the paper you used, but preferred the original sage. I see people using the word "Tupperware" for any small to medium sized plastic container. Tupperware is actually a brand name, and real Tupperware is expensive and you would never put your paint in it.

thanks! Sorry should have said plastic container

Fantastic job! You transformed that beautifully! Love the paint color and the paper, but oh my the pull knob is too cool!

Ahhh thanks so so much I love the little knob too!!!
