I may have had a little trouble in the past with picking a “perfect green” paint…..but I think I nailed it this time with my green side table!!!!!!

Here was my cute ‘lil table before…..
Never one to leave things alone…..I had to add some animal print somewhere on my green side table!!!!!
This is tissue paper (yes, the kind you use in a gift bag.). You can easily adhere the paper with Heirloom Tradition’s 1Gel …. my decoupaging product of choice. I also LOVE LOVE Heirloom Tradition’s tapered fiber brushes when painting furniture with chalk-type paint. It’s my favorite chalk brush!!!
First, you cut a piece of tissue paper in the exact size of the spot you will be adhering it to. Then, apply that 1Gel liberally and immediately lay your tissue paper on top of it. Smooth out with a sponge quickly to get any big air bubbles out. Let dry overnight. Go back over the tissue paper with another coat of the 1Gel the next day a
d you are done!
I love this table,the color is perfect and the print on the back just makes it!
Cute table!

I have to agree, it’s a great shade of green!
I saw a table just like this at a thrift shop, and did not buy it! Wonder if it’s still there? You did an amazing job on yours. Love the color. I’m your newest follower.
