    Hey you, thanks for pointing me in this direction. I got lots of Modge Podge. I can line my drawers just like all you big girls. I am so excited. Thank you so much.

    Great idea. You can use a wallpaper smoother to make all the bubbles go away very fast. :)

    I love your website I love following you you’ve got some great ideas I was just watching the one on midge podge fabric in the drawers and I noticed you did not put a coat on top. If we want to protect the fabric a bit more would it be OK to do that

    • @ChristyJames
      @ChristyJames  4 роки тому +1

      Thank you, Shelagh! You certainly can if you want to. Another option would be to use a darker or more patterned fabric that might not show wear as much. :)

    Thank you for showing a how to with fabric. Do you think you can go up the sides (the left and right side) of the drawer without to many complications? My drawers are old and ugly.

    • @ChristyJames
      @ChristyJames  4 роки тому

      You’re welcome! I have done it on this desk: www.confessionsofaserialdiyer.com/thrift-store-desk-makeover/ You do need to be sure the drawers have enough clearance that the fabric doesn’t rub on the sides. You can also paint the drawers if they are in really bad shape!

    For those concerned, spraying Scotch Guard on top of fabric would keep it clean and protect it longer. Use a damp cloth to wipe whenever needed. (Works wonders on cloth furniture.)

    How do they clean it when you mod podge it?

    • @ChristyJames
      @ChristyJames  Рік тому

      Hi Cheryl! I did use lighter fabric on this one, but I usually choose a darker, more forgiving fabric. A drawer in an end table like this shouldn’t get too dirty through. You can always spot clean and if you even need to replace the fabric, it pulls out pretty easily.

    Why didn't you mod podge the top?

    • @ChristyJames
      @ChristyJames  4 роки тому

      Hi Kala! There is really no need to with Fabric. If it were paper, I might add more Mod Podge on top.

      I used matte Mod Podge...it is very similar to a white glue.

    ? Can this be easily removed?

    • @ChristyJames
      @ChristyJames  4 роки тому

      Good morning! It can be removed, but it will take a little muscle to remove it. The Mod Pod adheres it very well, but the nice thing about using fabric vs paper is that it can be removed if you want.

    • @ChristyJames
      @ChristyJames  3 роки тому +1

      @@emanuelahere You will feel a bit of a texture where the glue was after you remove the fabric, but that shouldn’t be a problem if you just replace the fabric.

    • @emmasurf8768
      @emmasurf8768 3 роки тому +8

      If you use a piece of cardboard or foamcore cut to size, and affix the fabric to it, then it's easy to remove and no damage to the furniture.

    Why Mod Podge? Really more expensive than glue...

      Hi! I use mod podge because I like to be able to buy it in a giant container, but you could absolutely use glue as well! 💕
