I finally turned a little shelf I had been hanging onto, into something beautiful that I wanted to show off. This little thrift store shelf was brought back to life with a few supplies that most crafters already have at home.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Modge Podge
  • Craft Paper
  • Scissors
  • Shelf
  • Chalk Paint
  • Paint Brush

Steps (7 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    Make sure your shelf is clean by wiping off any dirt and dust.

  2. 2

    Give the shelf a fresh coat of paint.

  3. 3

    When the paint was dry, I used paper towels to get the shapes of the inserts I would be needing for the shelf.

  4. 4

    Use the paper towel guides to cut out your craft paper.

  5. 5

    Use Mod Podge to add the craft paper. I set a book on the paper until it was completely dry.

  6. 6

    I added a layer of Mod Podge over the craft paper also.

    That's all there is to it... now I have a fun little shelf that I love!
