How to Decoupage Furniture with Napkins a Table
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 08. 2024
- This video is from several years ago when there weren't so many decoupage glues available. I highly suggest you try any of the newer NAPKIN DECOUPAGE glues like the one listed below. I don't ever use Mod-Podge anymore since it made the surface of this table look like plastic over the years. I was able to add a very matte finish over it thankfully. :) When you want to decoupage furniture - especially a table, it's much easier to use smaller sections of a napkin as opposed to using whole napkins and risking wrinkles bubbling or tears. Here are the links to purchase your supplies although the napkins were discontinued years ago.

This was the BEST shabby to chic videos I've seen. So simple, so stunning. Thank you
Thanks so much 😊
I've been holding onto an old wooden coffee table for years, and I'm so excited now to do a decoupage project with it! Thank for the tutorial!
When I go shopping I always look for different napkins that inspires me. The one you used it's really lovely. Thanks for sharing it!
You made this look like so much fun. I am retired now with time to do projects like this. Thank you kindly for sharing your gift.
aww, thank you Michele! I hope you give it a try, it's a really relaxing and satisfying craft... Have fun!

I'm absolutely in love with this. I inherited a similar table that I was going to sell in a yardsale. I'm going to love it instead.
Yaye! Thank you Yiaya, it's a very rewarding project. I hope you are happy with your new table!
Patti
The decoupage scissors can also be bought at a garden store (Home Depot, etc). Those are the the same scissors used to clip flowers or in between delicate stems😊
Thank you for that information Phyllis
You did a lovely job on this table. Loved what you said about making something beautiful that nobody else wanted. Thanks so much for sharing!
"Great Job!" You are very skilled with this and I am so glad your video was the first I clicked on because I already know I don't need to anywhere else for the inspiration you have just given me.Sincere thanks.
Loved it! So great to see someone take an old piece of furniture & make it look better than it ever did!! You made ie look easy to great step by step video
+Tara Graham Thank you Tara! If I could I would spend all of my time (and money) reducing animals and furniture. :)

Hi None of Ya Buessiness, I used a top coat called Liquitex Matt Varnish. You can purchase it or just read more info about it here on my store.

Gordana Sinik Hi Gordana, your message came out as a series of numbers and letters-did you have a question?
Patti
I don't see the Liquitex Matt Varnish on the page?

Stunning project, Patti!!!!
You so inspire me after I watch your videos.
I have just painted some old chairs white, I am now going to decorate them with some napkins.
Thank you for sharing you beautiful work x
Thank you Gale! I'm so happy to hear that you find inspiration in my video's.
You are quite welcome!
thanks for commenting!
Patti
this, right here, is what i want and need to do... i don't have the living space for it, but it's on my list of goals... this came out beautiful, i enjoyed every second watching you
I watched this video this morning while I was getting ready to go to church and something you said in it made me think :-) I don't know what your spiritual belief system is but I'm a christian and you said about how you love to find stuff that no one else wants ( junk in other words ) and work on them and to make them beautifull
And I thought ah! That's what JESUS did with me my life was in such a mess and he found me when no one else wanted me and has continued to
Work lovely and patiently to make me BEAUTIFULL ,well that's how I saw it this morning :-)
+michelle staunton That's lovely Michelle. Michelle have you seen the movie, God is Real? It may be titled God is for Real.
Patti
+patioelf just sai your Message yes its a Great film our God is real i love Jesus:-)
yes, great film, God is real, and I also love Jesus. :)
Patti
I see that you are a Christian. I'm a former Muslim and I like it when people talk about Jesus. God bless you.
me too, work in progress!
Lovely idea, I've seen plain glass vases done too. I really enjoyed your tutorial. Very well put together. Thank you
Mags Nash Thank you Mags!
Patti
I was just about to decopatch a big wooden coffee table and solid hand made pine TV cabinet . Too good to get rid of. This has helped greatly i can start with dark grey chalk pain save me sanding. Thank you for your lovely videos. X
A gorgeous makeover.
I am currently researching for a big/tricky project and your video was the first one I found. Feeling more confident about this.
What a wonderful video. Love the fast forward. I learned a lot and your table is absolutely stunning. Thank You!
Thank you Janet!
I love hearing this type of feedback too. I also watch youtube video's and even after watching some of my oldest video's I hear myself saying, "We don't need to watch you paint-what's next?" LOL. I hope you give this a try, it's a very satisfying project.
Patti
Judy G…thank you! I love to know that I can inspire!
I hope you give it a try...
Patti
Thank you for posting this video! I have some beautiful scrap book paper that I wanted to use on my wood but didn't know how to even try it until I saw your tutorial. You were a great help to me!
Hi Shelley, I love reading that! Have fun, this is a very rewarding project! * thank you!
Patti
Haven't had a comp in yrs....an you just popped up again.... Once again ..yrs later still AWESOME : )
the art that flows from your aging hands has left me in a state of Awe of how one can create such beauties with simple ideas...i look at the nature and think of the God and I look at your work and wonder if the God holds and guide your hands to create such masterpieces that reminds one of peace.
How very patronising to suggest that her hands are ageing. If you'd left that word out, it would have been a lovely compliment.
I think it's a beautiful compliment.
Love the music and your amazing. I'm going to try this with a dresser and see how it turns out.
awww, thank you! I have a Facebook page called upcycle with decoupage, if you want you can always post pictures of your work on there. It's open to everyone and a lot of people who watch my video's, put pictures on there.
Have fun!
Patti
My mom does a lot of decoupage on cans, wooden jewelry boxes and I tried doing once but after gluing the napkins I started putting some glue over it (still glue wet) and it begun to tear apart and I said, " no way, this is not for me." I had really small shelves for my kitchen delivered yesterday and wanted them to be vintage or shabby chic style mixed with decoupage and after going through many videos I came across with yours and this is exactly what I want and the great idea of using the plastic instead of a paint brush like I used to is marvelous, fantastic! I loved this great idea. Thank you so much. Pleasant day.
+Lilian Marroquin I'm so happy to help Lillian. I used to hate to decoupage with napkins for just that reason, always tearing, bunching or wrinkling. I used only wrapping paper. There were so many beautiful napkins out there though, i was determined to find a way. :) Thank you!
Patti
I have been looking for a craft like this for a long time!!Thank you!! I'm gonna be decorating a sewing room using the large rose with a soft green shade.I wasn't sure how I was gonna do the rose's until I saw this!! I absolutely love it.And the victorian style rose's are my favorite!! Again...Thank you
+joanna lanzoni That sounds beautiful Joanna! A soft green would look lovely with this type of vintage rose. :)
Patti
WOW!!!! I have never seen anything as clever and beautiful. This is amazing, you are so creative - an inspiration to us all. Brilliant - Deb xxxx
Deborah Thorne awww, thank you Deb, you've made my day!
Patti
u do awesome work where can I get this rose napkins please tell me
What a beautiful piece of furniture you have made, and it has given me inspiration for my next decoupage project - thank you 😊
I started to Decopage some small wooden box's I bought really cheap on eBay, and I really loved the finished product, and the beautiful results. I really enjoy Decopage because there is no end to the different patterns that you can produce with Decopage I have a few pieces of furniture that I'm ready to restore, I have learned a few handy tips from watching you work, which will make the finish of my project look even better. Your Finish result's are really Beautiful, I can't wait to see your next project. Regards Anne
Love, love, love your tutorials! For future ones, could you maybe not speed them up so fast? Nobody has requested that yet, but I am because I actually get a little "sea sick" trying to get a better idea of what you're doing. Besides, it's enjoyable to watch artists create. :)
Thank you, again.
You have given that hidden diamond of a table an EPIC makeover Patioelf!! Such a delicate and beautiful creation! A big like from me and subbed :D Happy 2018!!!
Your idea is so awesome and has saved me lots of money buying decals and many hours trying to learn how to paint shabby chic roses for my projects. Thank you so much. Deborah
+Deborah Weidman Thank you Deborah, that's one of the reasons I love decoupage, I was having trouble trying to learn how to paint those roses by hand. :)
Patti
I absolutely love this!! I'm a complete newbie, I've never done anything like this. I have a nest of tables and a sideboard I want to upcycle. Now I have a week off work I can get on it! 😊
+Gemma Elliott Thank you! I'm so excited for you! I love decoupaging furniture, if I had room I would have it all over the place...Let me know how it turns out, you'll have so much fun!
Patti
Hi Marcella Bailey,
I hope you do try it, I think you'll love it!

this is the first video of yours that I watched and I am subscribeing you are awesome ... I love the table it's beautiful 😍😍😍
+tila uncensored Thank you Tila! Welcome to my channel. I'm also on Facebook if you want to ever show pictures of your work. Upcycle with Decoupage.
Patti
Thank you for the replies I will for sure look for you on Facebook 😘🌹🌹🌹
Thank you Tila!
Patti
What a transformation. I have been looking at how to do this. Thank you. I will be trying this very soon.
OMG! Reminds me of my grandmother so much. She had impeccable taste. I have a table just like this I'm going to use to do this!
Hi Paty this is stunning, beautifully done it looks so easy to do. Im going to try it if I could spray paint instead of painting? as I have limited mobility after braking my neck. What im asking is could you get the same result as painting as spray painting and doing the decoupage the same as you showed? I think this is fantastic thank you for sharing crafting hugs Bridget ☺
Yes.
thats beautiful! you have inspired me also..i'm with the other person though with the question , was the top coat the varnish?..xx
Thank you so much for walking me through my first napkin decoupage project ❤
I'm so glad I found this video! I've have my mom's little old sewing table for several years. Recently, she told me that it had also belonged to my grandmother and HER mother! So now, I've simply GOT TO refinish it! It's no beauty, pretty beat up, not valuable (except to my heritage), has about 20 layers of paint...so, decoupage is the way to go.
beautifully done
Thank you Pam!
Patti

That’s absolutely beautiful thank you so much for sharing this with us ! I’ve seen numerous videos about decoupage and you are the best by far ! I’m a new subscriber by the way ! 💕
going back to the project, is a beatifull table ,congrats.
waooo, great show, loved that you avoided the blah, blah, blah and gave us some piano instead, thanks a bunches
Thank you Dona!
I love that you can appreciate that, once in a while I watch a video and the person is talking so much I can't concentrate! LOL.
Patti
CARMEN-DELIA V I agree.
couldt you just use regular scissors? or is that just a fancy word for scissors
You sure can use regular scissors. The smaller scissors just make it a lot easier to get into small spots. You just have to be a bit more careful with the large scissors. They are called decoupage scissors in the craft store. 🌞
Wow this blew me away want a beautiful table. I just love want you done I will try myself one day for sure I will put butterflies on it. I am so thank full for you doing step by step easy to follow.
I have a friend who is now 81 years old. She would love the flowers. I did enjoy the technique and will use it for projects perhaps with sea shell napkins.
Hi Peggy, tell your 81 year old friend she is in good company…. :) Let me know how the sea shells turn out, I'll bet it looks really pretty...
Patti
patti what did you use the varnish on????
Im sure u found out 4 years later but I think that was the top coat
@@CatherineFickling 😅
Beautiful! Wow! You made it seem simple too. What did you use to top the surface at the very end. You don't say what you used. Thanks.
Hi Hargwayne, thank you! In the beginning of the video when I show the Liquitex Matt Varnish, that's what I used as the top coat. :)
Thanks for stopping by!
Patti
I’ve watched your video many times & tried doing decoupage it didn’t look like yours but I did like it anyway ..thank you for your help
Just beautiful, love your presentation, and instructions so clear, I have just finished a nest of tables, painted in clotted cream, they look great, just love
recycling old pieces, thank you again, going to check out your web now, Linda in the uk.

Great video, thank you for sharing and showing. The table looks lovely.
I love this project and thanks so much for helping us! I've never used chalk paint yet, but I have an ugly set of black chest of drawers I'd love to paint, so when better weather comes in, I'll be trying this. Your work is amazing and I watch all your videos and have learned so much xx
+Suzanne Leonard aww, thank you so much Suzanne. I am excited for you. When you see what chalk paint can do and decoupage, you'll want to redo so many things in your home!
Patti
This is gorgeous. I want to do a table and this was a good demo. Glad I found ur channel. Good demo & instructions on decoupage. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful table, Patti!!! Love, love, love this video!! Thank you for sharing...!!
+Johanna Kohn Thank you Johanna, this was one of my favorites too. :)
Patti
Oh my goodness I think I found what I can do with the side tables I bought! I wasn’t sure what I was going to do, but I think this is it! They are in my bedroom and since I am single I can do whatever I want to in my room and it is going to look like a garden LOL pink everywhere! I cannot wait to do this! Does anybody else out there have so many interests and so many things that you can’t possibly do them all???!! Ugh!!!
hi I absolutely love all yr projects especially this one, I've watched loads of others but yes is by far the most helpful, I've just finished my first little cabinet, I did exactly what you advised and it looks so beautiful. so many thanks. I've just subscribed so looking forward to your next upload. Many thanks....
Soooo beautiful! I can't stop smiling. Such a pleasure to watch your videos. Thank you.
Thank you Tess! I'm glad I could make you smile….;)
Patti
Love this, getting ready to do my old table , thanks for the instructions
I’m new to this craft and I absolutely love your work
Beautiful job well done. This remains me of a bathroom wall that I did. Beautiful red rose I did one bathroom wall. It came out awesome.
I'm new to decoupage and find your videos some of this most helpful I've watched. They of loads of info without a load of waffle. Most are more waffle than info lol 😜 xxx
That is one really nice, easy to follow video. And, the results are fantastic. Thank you...
BEAUTIFUL just BEAUTIFUL😁😁
I watch other people try to do furniture, but they use UGLY prints/fabrics etc. YOU chose well, and the finished product looks amazing. Now I'm inspired.
Congratulations Pati, you deserve it! So close to one million....
+Maria Joao Thank you Maria! It is exciting!
Patti
Very beautiful table! You are such a grrrreat teacher! Thanks so much for all your help! :) I learned so much from you! All the best, Caroline Grace
Wow your table looks beautiful! I will have to do this. Thank you for sharing this tutorial!
Absolutely brilliant!!! I cant wait to have fun looking for weird and wonderful items in the Goodwill shops and get started! Thank you!
Hi Sue,
thank you! I am going to Good Will next week to look for a wooden sled. I decoupaged one years ago but I used copies of all of my favorite Christmas cards. I like it but I want to do something far more shabby this time! I have a Facebook page called Upcycle with Decoupage. If you are on Facebook you can post pictures of your work or just look at everyone else's work! There are so many ideas from others on my page,,.it's really inspiring.
have fun!
Patti
Lovely DIY project. An inspiration to create more beautiful things.🥰
Simply gorgeous and beautiful, great job.
What a beautiful project - thank you! Not only is your video informative and very clear, I enjoyed your music choices!
Thank you Cheryl,
I do try to keep the instructions concise and I want to make sure the music is pleasing. :) This is good feedback for me so thank you again!
Patti
Simply brilliant. Wonderfully created video that has given me much needed inspiration. Thank you
My pleasure Wendy, and thank you!
Patti

Fantastic video with a clear, concise explanation. Thank you for posting.
That turned out so so pretty!
Love this. I've never thought about decoupaging with napkins!
Thrifty Chic Home I'm happy you found my video (and channel! ) since we use napkins here all the time. I hope you give it a try, it's really satisfying to save an unwanted piece of furniture. :)
Patti
Just fabulous, now looking forward to completing my nest tables in the same way, thank you so much for the tips
+Belle Walsh You are so welcome Belle. I have a FAcebook page called Upcycle with Decoupage. I would love to see what you do if you ever want to post pictures of your tables. Thank you!
Patti
Wow, that is the exact same table I was trying to figure out how to decoupage! Thanks. 🥰
You did it again Patti! The table is stunning.
Thank you! I hope you think of giving it a try. It was really very rewarding!
Patti
that was so interesting and table looks wonderful. well done
I always love Friday mornings ,Waking up ready to see this weeks project,This is absolutely beautiful Patti and i love the napkins you used on this table .This is a wonderful addition for your home Hugs your friend Jennifer xx
Hi Jennifer!
You are actually a big inspiration to me! You post such amazing work on my face book page I'm always hoping that people know it's your work and not mine. You do a lot with furniture and you have a real talent for design! I was excited to find the old table, I loved the curved legs and I didn't even want to change the handle (hardware) on the drawer. Thanks Jennifer! I love hearing from you!
Patti
Thank you for your very kind words,You learned me everything i know about decoupaging so maybe we bounce off each other ,and im so glad i found you and that we are friends and an inspiration to each other xx
My pleasure Jennifer! I'm so happy we met! (on line anyway-LOL)
Patti
how beautiful...the beginning is just wonderful and your tutorial was great.
Thanks for the video! So beautiful!
I can see this as a small business, flipping furniture!
Really enjoyed your project here in England, can't wait to get down to the charity shop and look for something to decoupage, so beware you ladies and don't stand still for to long or it maybe you . thanks for sharing with me.Dee.X
+Delia Kendall LOL! You are so much like me, and I'm always being accused of decoupaging anything that sits still for too long-even, accidentally of course, my pets. (they like to take naps near me while I work) I have a Facebook page called Upcycle with Decoupage if you would like to share pix of your work, I would love to see it. Have fun and thank you so much! (and welcome from across the Pond!)
Patti
Thank you for this video. I love how the table looks and your instructions are clear and easy to follow. :)
+Faith Martinez Thank you Faith, it's always so nice to get such good feedback!
Patti
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I think I'm going to give my IKEA cupboards in my Sewing Room a good going over with some lovely napkins I have saved. Thank you so much for this tutorial and the idea of the cellophane wrap is perfect. Thank you again. :-)
Very pretty....my grand-daughter would LOVE this!!!
Love this. Want to give this a go
Thankyou so much and you really are very talented
