Home Sweet Home

So when you're poor & can't afford furniture or decor.. you get like me & make your own!




                  
            Canvas from Micheals $13






 
Key house from Micheals $1
Various wood cut from Home Depot $14

I painted all the wood black then nailed/glued them together. I used scrapbooking paper to line the bottom/ sides of the boxes then covered it with mod podge
48X24 in. sheet of wood from Home Depot $6
Blue gift bag from 99cents store

I used hot glue to spell "Amore Profondo." Used 1 in. square magazine cutouts & mod podge. Cut up the gift bag & used picture glue to glue it on.





Mirror & dresser set from Goodwill $10
I spray painted the dresser in a glossy apple red.




I originally wanted to paint the frame but my lack of talent prevented it from looking decent, so I used magazine cutouts & mod podge instead.

Wood from Home Depot $5
Glass top from Home Depot $17

After painting the wood brown and assembling it, I stenciled a design on top & added glass cushions to the corners.




48X24 in. wood sheet from Home Depot $6

This is called "He's Just Not That Into you" 
It's a combination of art I've seen before. 





20X36 in. wooden block from Home Depot $12



Oh gosh.... I really needed a dining room table. & my camera captured every flaw.

Desk top from IKEA $10
Wood pieces from Home Depot $5

I rushed through the process because I wanted a table so bad.
