Decoupage with Mod Podge
A Little Chair Refresh
The little chair that could.
When I bought it, I said I could hang it on the wall and use it as a shelf.
I could sit it by the fireplace and let it hold a plant.
I could place it beside the tub and let it hold a fluffy towel.
Or it could be the life of the party.
It could make your mason jar beverage container tall enough that you could fill your glass with pineapple margaritas and you can actually get your glass under it 🙂
and becauseI have little fish obsession. I decided to add a fishy wrapping paper to the back of it.
I spray painted the chair with Maison Blanche Furniture Paint, the color is Sugar Cane. ( I spray painted it while I was spraying my OLD LOCKER. click here to see Old Locker).
I cut the paper a little larger than the slats,wrinkled the paper a little trying to make it look like I painted it…that may or may not translate good in the photo. But let’s just say it does…MmmKay 😉
Apply Mod Podge to the slats, apply wrapping paper. After it dries, use an X-Acto knife to trim the edges. Apply a clear sealant to protect.
I told you about my fish obsession, right!
I’ve been collecting them for a while. I’m always looking for fish dishes or serving pieces and if the dish is white, even better!
I have you thinking right?!?
You bought that cute beverage container and you need a dispenser stand, don’t just look at the ordinary!
Sit it on a small chair and put a fish on it!
I did 🙂

Great idea! You can literally decoupage anything! I love the chalkboard bunting you added too.
Debbie, you have the cutest fish obsession I ever did see! How clever you are to make that little chair the life of the party! Love It! And want to stop by your next soirée, fish and all!
i love this little chair Debbie. You’re right….the things you could use the chair for are endless. The fish pager is cute, cute! I’m a big fan of margaritas but never had a pineapple one. I feel deprived 🙁
What a genius idea, and it looks so cute too! I would love to be invited to your party 🙂
You did it again…wow’d me! I really love this idea. Loving the fish theme! ~Christy
I was kind of hoping for the Pineapple Margaritas recipe that went in the dispenser! LOVE the “stand” for it. What a wonderful idea! 🙂
I love your chair!!!! And your staging is absolutely incredible!!!!! Just beautiful.
The fish paper is too nice to use as gift wrap. I love that you have a permanent use for it! The chair is adorable and your fish theme is so inviting.
My mom gave me a little antique chair she bought in Vermont and I had no idea what to do with it. Now I do! Thank you for the inspiration!

That’s adorable! And I love the idea of using the little chair as a drink stand! That has always been my problem with the drink dispensers…you can’t get your cup under the dispenser part! This is the perfect solution! Life to the full! Melissa
