- How to decoupage a dresser! to purchase paint visit my store! debisdesigndiar... I really appreciate your business.This project was inspired by a hand-painted dresser I saw on Pinterest. Then my friend Lori from the Velvet Glove created a beautiful decoupaged dresser and I decided to create my own version. I used a $7 poster from Michaels Craft store and a thrift store dresser.
If you want to make a similar project, there are many tips and tricks that I learned in the process on my blog. I highly recommend reading my post so you don't make the same mistakes that I made.

Go to woodprix if you'd like to know how to make it easy. Good solution for every woodworker.
@Raji Kanufa Fantastic. Agree!
How does Woodprix help you to more easily make this project?
This is still one of my favourite vids, all these years later❤️
Thanks for showing the "fail" portion too - it's important! Love how it turned out and now I have inspiration to make my own. :D
Oh my gosh, your creativity is genius! Adding the rhinestones...YES!
I think it worked out that your first attempt didn't go quite as planned, because cutting her silhouette out of the poster instead of having the background with it looks even more amazing. Great job!
That is SUCH a great way to distress!!!!!!!!!!!!! No sanding! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Hi everyone, trying to respond to some of your comments but the new google+ thing is making the process very confusing and difficult. Please bare with me and thank you for all the kind words! It looks like I can only reply to the newer comments and the ones that came in yesterday have no reply option. there's supposed to be a way to get around this, hopefully I will figure it out and be able to reply to you soon :)

Wow!!! You are amazing 👍👍why can't u just be my neighbor so I can go get u when I need to redecorate ...lol I love this Marilyn Monroe idea my room is actually all of her ...Well keep it up I don't get bored watching your videos your awesome..😍😍😍😍
One method of pasting paper to another surface is to apply paste to the paper and also to the surface you are applying it to. This equalizes the shrinkage on the applique and the surface. It was something I learned in creative process when taking art classes and it works nicely.
I forgot to mention that when you get the applique on take a clean piece of paper and place it on top of the applique and smooth it out, but always use a clean piece each time you are done with each section so that you are not contaminating untouched surface with glue from another section. Its a little time consuming but it will look good and clean, if that is what you want, and nothing from the ink or poster will lift up or shift around.
whe ebwnw
Thanks for hanging in there. It turned out great!
Omg you are totally a brunette Taylor Swift in 20 years!
Great tutorial x
Klaus Taylor. awe thank you ! xoxo
Debi's Design Diary I think you look and sound like Taylor Swift now, never mind 20 years. great video by the way!
Ew, no way! Taylor is a horrible person, taking her fans for court, and threatening to sue the man who taught her how to play guitar, for stating that he was her teacher.
Debi gives off good vibes!!
This dresser was absolutely EVERYTHING!!!
This is WOW, I love it, and plan to make my mom one w/ Elvis. Love this and you make it easy to watch, you are so fun!!
I love that you showed your "oops" moments along the way. Thanks for letting us learn from your mistakes. This dresser is awesome!
This is awesome! I'm thinking there might be a "Starry Night" dresser in my future.
I love how in her videos if she makes a mistake she WILL tell you and show you. That's the fun part of DIYs. Trying something new, learning from your mistakes, and end up with an amazing customized item.
I absolutely love this dresser ....you do amazing work ! It's awesome !
What I love most about this video is that she has the humility and authenticity to show her mistakes on camera. So many times, you watch these DIY projects on TV shows or online and they make you fearful of trying it yourself. You think, "Well, yeah, if I had a five person team of ex Martha Stewart staffers, I could do this! Otherwise, I doubt it!" But, you're shown here than you can make a mistake and recover from it with beautiful results. So, I really appreciate this video.
Debi!! I wish I could just come visit inside your brain and see how these ideas come to be. I would have never thought of any of this in a million years. You are so awesome!! Just when I think I have my favorite project you did, you do one I like even more!
Wow! I never knew that decoupage was that easy! Such a great idea for keeping old furniture. With your ingenious idea you can bring them to life instead of throwing them out. I can't wait to give it a try!
Thank you Debi. You are wonderful. You showed me your mistakes so that I would not make them.
I absolutely love this. PPL who don't do crafts or don't have a creative bone in their body do not realize the beauty of trial and error. You demonstrate just that and patience. Thank you for such a great video, you were a joy to watch!
That's the best video ever, you're fun and you showed that actually things might not work and just not panic and do it again =) Loved it =)
Kkkkkkkkkk
Process videos are my FAVORITE. Thank you for sharing yours!!
U r amazing. Ur musics cool. Ur vids are pro. And you show and share your mistakes. Ur awsome. Well dun!!!
Thank you for adding your mistakes in this video. It helps me know what not to try, and also teaches me how to fix it if I screw up. Most videos get it perfect in one shot because they've done it a million times before, and I'm a first timer. So your mistake give me more confidences that I can do it. Thank you!
you are now my best friend, accept it lol
Nappypuff right???!! 😅😅😅😅😅😍😍😍❤❤❤❤
I felt the exact same way! 😅
I am new to the world of chalk and furniture painting and I was in your store on Saturday in Pembroke Pines. I bought 2 cans of CeCe paint to makeover an old secretary desk into a sewing/craft table. I will post my results when I finish but I just want to say the Marilyn dresser is absolutely awesome!! Kudos!!!
GENIUS! Now all i have to do is find Rosie O'Donnell poster online!
lol
blooduhz Google images and have a print shop print the size you want
Marilyn Looks Fabulous, of course! And Debi, you did a great job on the dresser.🎉❤
soooo cute debbie!!!
I agree with Rhonda Gray, it's so helpful to see you learn, sometimes by error. It takes the need to be perfect before attempting out of the equation, making it all possible! TY TY
You are a DIY queen!
I admire you and your work much! I have done so many project since watching this. I am a mom to an autistic child and your project gave me life and income! My next project is a kitchen table with a giant knife fork and spoon!
I think I just fell in love with you....you. are. awesome.
Thanks for all the great tips on modge podge. I have done many modge podge projects always had bubble problems. Definitely need the squeezee tool. My daughter and I love your personality and presentation and of course your talent! Your dances make me smile!
A reason why you ended up with bubbles under the paper, was because you used too much glue. Probably, if you used spray glue, you may have a better work.
I love the fact that in your video you show the parts that don't work well and then going back to show your changes. This is ideal and wonderful with DIY projects! Thanks!
Friday Kahlo and Billie Holiday
Love the added touch of border and bracelet.
Can I do a bathroom wall?
I love that you had a little trouble but worked thru out and showed us the process
Taylor Swift, you're drunk, go home!
i Saru LOL
i Saru great answer
Debbie...I learned to first brush a light coat of mod podge to the paper, front and back, before decoupaging to the surface. Let the mod podge dry completely then apply to your surface. This keeps your paper from getting wrinkled.
I like that you show that you mess up sometimes too , some videos never show mess ups!
WOW!!!! THAT IS BEAUTIFUL!! I am trying to come up with ideas to decorate my bedroom with Marilyn Monroe. Everything so expensive so it's a slow process but your giving me some great ideas!! Love your channel.
Lookin good!!!!! I decoupaged a bathroom sink, and a ceiling one time...loved your enthusiasm too!!!!
Debi...The Girl's got talent and she's doing what you love!!!! I want to be like you Debi when I grow up. You're an inspiration for me. I am now a subscriber!!
I love it and I love the fact that you just went w it you know 😀you kept it real w us knowing that not everything will come out perfectly right (but you know try again) makes me want to give this project a try .
Wow!! That was not only brilliant, it was delightful to watch! Wonderful work!
This is totally what was looking for!! I love that you included the first attempt and how it didn't work, so you tried something else. You're an inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing your art!!
Great Project..
Beautiful Colors..
Love the added touch of Rhinestines..
Gorgeous 😍
Loved the finished results...I have had much success with decopage by relaxing the paper first in a bath of water. Put glue on surface...drip off excess water and then place it on furniture. Brayer or sqeegy works well to smooth out, just be careful because the paper is more fragile when it is relaxed.
How can a person dislike this? Well done. Quick and to the point.
That is amazing. Thank you for showing a failed idea, which is so reassuring for those of us who feel a little green about DIY. It's great to know that a seasoned pro sometimes changes direction. :)
What a cool project,! Love how you made over this dresser. The rhinestone chain and bracelet were such nice touches!
You had me rolling when you made Marilyn cry! I’m glad that you messed up the first one because it looked way better the second time around!! AND… I can’t even be mad at you for painting that nice piece of furniture because you turned it into a piece of pop art! Nicely done 💕🖤
This turned out amazing she looks gorgeous 🤗
Awesome video! Luv how the first attempt didn't work out and you showed how you went about it from a different angle....very helpful! Luv the final result. Very cool.
That is absolutely charming, and well worth all the hard work!
I am glad you posted this, I bought a Paris themed poster a month or so ago with the intention of doing this. Now thanks to your video, I know how, wish me luck!!!
My daughter is going to want this. I already know. I can't wait for her to get home so I can show it to her. All I need now is to find the dresser. Marilyn Monroe posters are everywhere! Thanks for sharing!
Debbie you are a genius!!! I absolutely love it! And your creativity!
This just gave me a great idea for my pallet head board to my pallet bed! Awesome!
I'm new at distressing & repurposed furniture. I recently moved to Florida & people leave stuff out WEEKLY so I go around grab what I like & I'm ADDICTED!! LOL
I absolutely LOVE your stuff & ideas your BRILLIANT!! So your my second addiction... Now I'm switching to chalk cause I just used a primer & I'm not liking that it's to long & I want my stuff posted & sold quickly!!
Marilyn never looked so good!
Great tutorial❣️
🙏
She is so likable x
Love this tut
This woman is amazing and so fun to watch!
Hello! This is a awesome tutorial. I used this idea to revamp a boring plywood dresser with a Iron Maiden "Eddy "poster, because I'm doing our bedroom in a rock/heavy metal theme. It turned out so amazing!! Thanks for the inspiration, I will post a picture later today or tomorrow.
You-re my absolute favorite DIYer!
Wow! I loved how you still shared the mistake and how to fix it... amazing video!
I LOVE MARILYN & I LOVE THIS DRESSER!!!
Loved your presentation..... you are so quirky! =) The decoupage looks amazing. You did Marilyn proud. Tfs.
That was pretty awesome. I am decoupaging something for the first time and it is pretty frustrating at first. I am glad you left the fail into the video it just goes to show that you don't always get it right the first time but you can still salvage what you have and try again.
Love Marilyn, so I love this dresser. Very cool! And it worked out better with it being just Marilyn and no polka dots. :)
I grew up in Traverse City and I love that paint color, it's definitely very cherry.
Hi Debbie I really enjoy your decoupage makeovers and your very happy spirit. Thanks for sharing. I've been hearing about decoupage but never investigated till now. So I will be trying it on some the items that I've been collecting. I am a hobbyist designer & decorator always looking for new ideas as sometimes I can't sleep for being creative in my mind so I've learned to get up out of bed type it up or write it down cause if I don't get up out of that good rest I'll lose the idea the next day lol. Thanks again keep up the good work
I love this. I am new to your channel and enjoy diy just about anything. I love that you show the whole process. The good, the bad, the sad and the happy success. This dresser was awesome. I tried doing this with wooden folding tables and pages from a kitchy calendar and had the same problem. The little tool and letting the glue dry in sections was brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool. Love that u shared your goof, it makes attempting this less stressful.
You Rock! Soooooo Happy to see that it didn't work originally as I get stuck and upset on my first try fails and think I'm the only one! This is BEAUTIFUL:)
Braclets N necklaces N awesum addD touch! Very creative idea...
My daughter would luuuuv this dresser! ❤
Hysterical! Man you are patient! Keep up the good work and the the "fails" LOL
Coming from someone who has watched 20+ videos on how to do this.... This is by far the best and most informative! I also am obsessed with this idea (and my bedroom is all marilyn with silver and crystal furniture. 🤔🤔🤔) But for real THANK YOU!
I've been refurbishing a vanity for over a year now. I'm a huge makeup Junkie and Jeffree star is my absolute favorite makeup brand. I have a BUNCH of tissue paper that is black and white with his tattoos all over and I want to make that my shelves that run in the middle of my vanity (it's painted pearl, with black hardware and the chair is pearl and royal blue) so im nervous as frack BC im pretty sure I have JUST ENOUGH paper for both shelves. 😬😬 This video has seriously helped me out though really!!!! Sorry for being all long winded and emotional and junk 😜🤗🤗🤗🤦♀️
Jerika Baldwin That is such a good idea! I wonder what I can decoupage in honor of Jeffree? 😆 Have u done it yet? When u do, u should tag him! He might share it on Twitter 🤷🏻♀️
I'm gonna put it on Twitter and tag him! I did the shelves on the vanity!
Jerika Baldwin I bet it came out beautiful! Since I read your comment 2 months ago, I’ve seen people selling that same tissue paper on Poshmark. Every time I see some for sale, I think about buying it but honestly I’m not there in my life yet. I’m in the decluttering what I don’t need, making a home for things I do need and teaching myself good habits to keep my house clean phase right now. I’ve been at it for almost a year. I should be able to start the fun stuff in the new year though! Otherwise I would have been on hoarders in 20 years!
HTownShanna do u have fb? If so link and I’ll send u a pic! I’m still trying to arrange everything so it’s #jeffreeapproved 😂😂 I’m too scared to post it I’ll be so devastated if he don’t see it and like it 😩😩 but it worked out GREAT I’m so pleased!!
Omg I love u Debbie you have changed my life... i'm going to try this but Wonder Woman theme for my 6yr old daughters room..... eeeek I'm so EXCITED!
You are a breath of fresh air to the Internet and You Tube. And so creative. I just discovered you and I'm so happy. Thank you for all the hard work you do to entertain and teach us. I love it.
that's an awesome! never thought about adding posters to my furniture.
This was just adorable! I love how you did this with recycled items. That is SOOO cute!
this is my most favorite thing that you have ever made
That is the greatest imagination that I've seen yet on CZcams. Amazing!!!!
There should be a LOVE rating because this tutorial is fantastic. I know I can do this. I'm going to send this to a couple friends. One will probably do a Coco Chanel one and the other one an Audrey Hepburn! Thanks Debi!
Love your dresser Debbie, Fantastic. Can't wait to try it.

Great video. You just might have motivated me to pimp out an old dresser that's kicking around.
Your videos are always a joy.
