    The trick to avoid the bubbles while glueing paper on other surface is actually puting the glue on the paper, not on the wood. The paper expands because of the humidity in the glue and dryes perfectly flat.

      When the glue is too thick for my project, I usually dilute it a little bit with water and use a brush or roller to apply it . Also using a scrapper helps to get rid of the bobbles.

    You attention to detail and going so far as to even finish the inside of the drawers and even the back of the piece is stepping things up into super excellence.

    Your dressing table turned entry hall table is very nice. It turned out beautifully. When you glue paper down apply the glue to the paper. Use a plastic card such as a credit card or old gift card to smooth the paper down starting in the center of the paper and work outward. I am looking forward to seeing more of your projects.

    For applying wallpaper and vinyl to wood, I cut my PVA glue- 1 to 1 water to glue ratio- and apply that evenly to the material I'm adding. It slides around for positioning and lets out any bubbles much easier that way. An even coat should dry smooth. Nice little desk or vanity!

The drawers offer lots of storage space for rarely used serving pieces, and the different heights of the top could separate the types of food for a small gathering.

    It was a very cool Art Deco (as you said) dressing table. It would have had a nice (probably) large oval mirror attached to the back. LOL, my wife bought me a nice simple stained glass window back in the ‘70s. I refinished the frame and hung it in the front picture window. The kids in the Jr. High School across the street thought we were the coolest people on the block. Years later, my Dad made a large oak frame and attached the stained glass under the center open panel to make it a coffee table. For years I stored it because I couldn’t find legs that I liked. In the early 2000’s a local furniture store had a back room with things they couldn’t sell. In there I found a painted wooden coffee table with legs that match the legs you put on this piece, except shorter. I bought the table for $5, unbolted the legs and put them on my oak/stained glass coffee table-PERFECT!
