Hello my friends!
So in between being busy with the holidays at work and working on presents and such at home, I began work on what I had hoped would be my new bedside table.
Over the summer I acquired this:


And I think I succeeded:


First I painted any nicks and bumps and that ugly gold-brown-bronze trim black, then I mod podged on my fabric over all the areas where the glass had been. To the top I added some decorative gold trim and crossed my fingers that it would still look nice after 3 or so coats of polycrylic. It did just fine (yay!) and adds a lot to the top.

I really like the way the drawers turned out. The broken glass was still pretty secure to the drawers, so I was able to just mod podge the fabric on over top of it without much difficulty at all. Then I just popped the original knobs back on once the polycrylic dried.
It looks really nice in my room by my bed, and I even have enough fabric left over to make a pillow. :-D
This is so pretty! I love the fabric you chose. What a great job. :D
