Decoupage Furniture Projects: 15 Unique Ideas

Ever tried Mod Podging furniture? It’s a great way to upcycle a piece on a budget! Check out these 15 decoupage furniture projects to get started.

Time and time again, I see that your favorite projects on this blog are from the DIY furniture category. And I don’t blame you – the decoupage furniture projects are my favorites too!

I don’t consider myself to be a home repair/intensive DIY person, so the thought of Mod Podging a chair or table is much nicer than the thought of something fancy like staining. I know, it’s just a mind game . . . but I can’t help it.

Mod Podge doesn’t scare me, and often times it’s the more budget friendly upcycling option. If you’re on the same page as me, take a peek at this collection of 15 decoupage furniture ideas. You’ll be Mod Podging a chair in no time – I know it!
