This project is so easy, even for a person with no artistic flair, it's also easy on the pocket and could be applied to almost anything.
Materials
- Pages from an old book
- Podge
- Paintbrush
- Black paint for decorative images (optional)
- Object you wish to apply this too (cupboard, wall etc)
1. Once you've decided or chosen a piece you wish to "make-over"clean it making sure there is no dust, dirt or grease on it. If it's a wooden piece smooth the wood with sandpaper, if needed, and wipe the dust off.
2. Using your paintbrush, paint the back of a page with a layer of podge and place on the cupboard. Repeat with remaining pages, overlapping pages until the entire cupboard is covered.
3. Paint another coat of podge over the top ensuring a smooth finish.
4. (Optional) Paint a desired image on top of your pages once the podge has dried completely.
