Decoupaged wardrobe
Plain jane wardrobes are aplenty at Ikea. But that's nothing a little paint and decoupage can't fix. Here's a sweet one from Brett, an upgrade of the Stranda.

ReplyDeleteThat is really amazing, and I can think of so many applications.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
This is an excellent decoupage job. Looks great.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, great job!!
ReplyDeleteExcuse my ignorance: how does decoupage differ from applying regular wallpaper or con-tact paper? Thanks for enlightening me!
decoupage is the clue/sealant, not the paper. it is a clear liquid, like glue, but can be used to adhere, coat, and a load of other crafty things. one major brand, for example, is mod podge. it's not too expensive and is super multi purpose.
DeleteAnon @ 1:35 decoupage is a technique involving gluing paper to an object, often using something like Mod Podge. You can use almost any kind of paper and it usually involves several coats of glue.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this! Talk about taking a 'fit the mould' item and making it unique. Do you think this could be adapted for the Pax Nexus wardrobe? I have this at home which I've draped with shabby chic bunting in my bedroom but would love it to look more vintage - the Pax Nexus doesn't have the trimmed shape though so could this be done?
