Mod Podge Strikes Again...

I bought this little side table a long time ago at TJ Maxx. Up close, it's a mosaic tile of broken china plates. I love it and it's moved around from room to room...but in different colors.




This is when it was pink and red to match the fabric in Courtney's room.




This is the black and white version from my sewing room.



Now that I've added a little red to my sewing room, it's time for another Mod Podge make over!



It's so easy to change the look of something quickly. Just spread a layer of Mod Podge over the top...



add your fabric to the wet glue and then add another coat of Mod Podge.



The top coat acts as a sealer.



Now I'm all set for a cup of tea and a little hand sewing or maybe just reading my new catalog from Hancock's of Paducah. I have a gift certificate I have to use too.



Have a great Sunday,
~Karen~

  16. Where did you get that fabulous wee thread holder? I often take my snips and thread and needle down in frnot of the tv if I'm going to do a chunk of hand sewing, this would be great!

  19. Great idea Karen. I love Mod Podge
    and use it all the time for different projects. I just used it
    to make a game called sequence with
    playing cards on a board. Fun
    game. ":O)

  20. Oh Karen you have no idea how much I miss TK Maxx! It's big in England too you see, but there isn't a single outlet I know of in Australia... when I first moved out here I used to dream that it was here and be really disapointed when I woke up! LOL!!! Great idea for the table sweetie - got to love that Modge Podge!!!
    Hugs darling! Vikki xoxo

  21. This is a great idea! But I'm wondering how you remove the old one when you want to change it to a new fabric? Is Mod Podge easy to remove? I've only ever used it with paper before.....
    thanks!
