From Trash Table top… to Toddler Terrific!
I have had this simple MDF table top disc for several years now.
I did in fact use it as a table top back when those inexpensive
three legged tables were popular.
It has been hard living in rental homes the last year and a half.
I had the perfect nursery to bring Aiden home to, decorated
exactly how I wanted it. The only room I have ever finished.
However, I still have the desire to make my sons room special
no matter where we live. This is tricky since we are limited by
rental rules, and of course, as always, a small budget.
I took stole my design from a flannel throw that I
bought and put together for Aiden last year at Christmas.
I chose similar colors and painted each layer one on top of the
other giving them a couple of hours in between to dry.
To make the car I chose a car style off the blanket and
hand drew the shape on a piece of printer paper to
create a template/ stencil.
Finally I purchased wood letters and painted them to
create the message!
I then attached a picture hanger to the back of the disk
ready to be hung up.
( MDF is heavy material so make sure you use an anchor
and screw when hanging to insure that it is safe for a child’s room.)
