A before and after side table.


Fabric and furniture are the two “Fs” of Mod Podge right now. Let me add one more “F” – fun! Christina from Down & Out Chic did this little end table, one she had in her entry way for awhile and decided to spruce up. I like a lot of things about this table.

-the vintage style is darling
-the fabric – the wonderful fabric
-she used white as a basecoat

I think white is one of those furniture colors that is, at least these days, underestimated. I’m glad that Christina showed such an awesome way to incorporate white with Mod Podge. It does my heart good.

I want to encourage you, dear reader, to NOT be afraid of projects such as these. They aren’t as hard as you think, and the results are awesome. Visit the skinny on this project here and then check out the rest of the blog. You are going to love it!

    This is really really cute. I love the colors and combo of style and the fabric. I just recently discovered your blog…my question is about how easy is it to remove the fabric later if you want to change it?

  3. Hi Vicki! Thank you for visiting. Since Mod Podge is designed to be permanent, it is difficult to get off, but it can be done. You can steam it and/or buy a solvent from the hardware store. You will definitely have to sand as well. The good news is that because it’s so tough it will be long-lasting and durable for your furniture projects.

  4. This is amazing! I am always telling my friends how “uncrafty” I am when it comes to any kind of glue, but now I have motivation to try again. I love what you did with this “grandma” looking side table.

    I am currently decorating a home to be used by missionaries and we have lots of goodwill type furniture. This is a great idea. I can’t wait to try it on something in my house.

  5. Hey Sharee! Christina, creator of this cute table, with be awesomely happy with your comments! That’s great that you are decorating a missionary house. That will be fun to have lots of their decor done with Mod Podge! Please send pictures!!

  6. I love this & just saw this exact table…the before of course, at the thrift store…sadly I let my husband come with me today and he didn’t see it’s beauty. I wonder if it will still be there on Tuesday.
