Garage Sale Table Revamp

I scored this three tiered plastic table at a garage sale for $2.  I knew it had great potential.  I always take a measuring tape with me when I am scavenging for thrifty pieces to beautify.  I measured the diameter of the inner circle on the tiers, and was thrilled to learn it was just under 12 inches in diameter – scrapbook paper and mod podge, you know it!

This project was easy, but I took my sweet time.  I spray painted the entire piece with krylon.  When that was dry I cut the scrapbook paper and adhered it with mod podge.   Next, I just started painting the in the colors and designs you see.  I used my cricut to cut a vinyl stencil for the scalloped border on the top tier.  For the triangles, stripes and checkerboard designs, I used artist tape.  I didn’t plan anything ahead.  I just went with it.

This will go great in my college student’s new apartment!
