Hi everyone! My latest UnicornPostbox blog post is progression photos of a decoupaged purple and white dressing table, upcycled for the Children’s Air Ambulance… hope you enjoy! 😊

I started this upcycling project by first cleaning with a spray and sanding with a mouse sander. I painted then all over with a chalky white paint, a few coats, including the inside of the drawers. I decoupaged a purple patterned wallpaper onto the bottom drawer, stuck and sealed with mod podge. I painted the top two little drawers metallic purple, and screwed on golden knobs onto all the drawers. I also painted the back of the dresser and the back of the mirror with the white chalky paint. I cleaned the glass with windowlene. The final step was to seal with a furniture paint lacquer… and here is the end result!

I am actually really proud of this one! I think it’s one of the best I’ve done! It’s so pretty 🥰 Some of my colleagues have said how you can tell I’m improving, which is lovely to hear…

Shortly, I am going to Scarborough..so keep a look out for a future travel post! I am also on with my latest diamond art…

Thank you as ever for reading/ viewing…

All the best, Lauren xx
