I'm participating in Kimba's Do It Yourself Day at A Soft Place to Land. This project was such fun to do! I can't sew, but this garage sale find needed a make-over. My friend, Heather, told me she had seen someone decoupage scrapbook paper onto a table. Genius.
I enlisted the help of these two...
And we got busy! All you need is lots of fabulous scrapbook paper, Mod Podge, an embroidery hoop (or something to trace a circle shape), sponge paintbrush, a pen, pom pom trim, and some scissors. Oh, and a lot of free time.;)
Yippee! It took a loooooong time, but we finished!:)
These colors and designs put a smile on my face!:)
I call it my Happy Quilt!

Lori, I forgot to tell you that I love your new picture!! Very pretty...
I wonder if you could use something other than scrapbook paper?
Love, Jerelene
HOW CUTE is that table!!! you did a great job!!
GORGEOUS! What a great find and then to make it into something AMAZING! I adore the bobble trim you used!
The table looks awesome! You three did great! What a cute idea. I think you should paint the walls a pale robin's egg blue or a soft green.
WOW...this really POPS OUT AT ME! I was going to try this on my old trunk but was not sure if it would work and thought I would paint it black but now I think I want to do this way instead...so cool Lori!
I love it! Gosh I wish I could be that creative.
I love it!
That is absolutely fabulous! I love the pom pom trim! You have totally inspired me!
Absolutely love it.
