Anne from White Lace Cottage gave new life to a basic kitchen stool using one of the easiest and prettiest DIY techniques—decoupage!
She started with an inexpensive wooden stool and transformed it with just a little paint and a beautiful paper napkin.
Yes, a napkin!
Anne carefully separated the printed layer and used Mod Podge to adhere it right onto the stool seat.
She added a lovely distressed finish to the legs using white chalk paint and light sanding for that perfect shabby chic vibe.
You’ll really love how this little project adds a pop of personality to any corner without needing a full furniture overhaul.
Anne reminds us that decoupage doesn’t have to be intimidating—just take your time and smooth out those wrinkles!
You can customize this idea with any pattern or color scheme you like.
Anne picked up her napkins from HomeGoods and used a simple foam brush to apply the Mod Podge.
