A-Z PHOTO PROJECT: The DIY!

Posted on March 29, 2012 by Clouds of Colour

So for my A-Z Photo DIY I have decided to revamp a coffee table. I thought this would be a cool idea as soon we will be moving into our own place and I wanted to easily move it.

Items needed: An old receycled table, an A3 sheet of your favourite photos, spray glue, a ruler and very sharp knife.

Firstly I arranged all my photos onto A3 pages and printed them onto a fine paper. From here I used spray glue and coated the top of the table. Stick the sheets of paper on so that it covers the whole top of the table. Carefully press out any air bubbles with your hand.

Next, cut around the edges of your table with a sharp blade, until you are happy with the edges!

Next I coated the top with a heavy varnish (mum had some polyurethane left in the shed) and left it to try for a few hours.

Loving it! x Bec

T! Teacups… One of my major obsessions! I love collecting teacups, the older the better.

Hey Guys! Just a few quick notes: My friend Ash has entered into a photography competition and needs votes on Facebook in order to win. If you have a spare moment I know how much she would appreciate your vote. Ash is an arty bud of mine, one whom Im going to miss awfully when we leave Auz! And secondly, Rachel Jane from the blog Two Loves is doing her own A-Z project with the theme of food. She has some really amazing photos so take a peek and let her know what you think
Thanks! x Bec
