the half couch


so it's almost finished.

ill run you through a quick guide to what i did.

1. find half seat half coffee table on the road.

2. buy black gloss enamel spraypaint, thick duct tape, and another spraypaint in the colour of your choice

3. lay thick strips of duct tape over the upholstery, making sure it is even and properly stuck. spray upholstery in sweeping manner, wait to dry and peel off duct tape.

4. clean surface of the wood, spray multiple coats of black glossy enamel spraypaint.

really simple, you could honestly apply it to just about anything.


so here is the (half) finished project, im just going to do a few more paint coats of the black and then i'll re-attach the cushion

from this


to this:






just in case you were wondering, total cost of the project - $11. not bad if i do say so myself. x
