Description

Turning a cheap IKEA coffee table into something a little more colourful and fun

Instructions

  1. Small untitled 1

    I painted the top of this coffee table with white emulsion paint. It took 3 or 4 coats to be opaque enough

  2. Small img 4578

    I cut the panels out of my comic. If you want the story to be readable then you will need two comics as this way you are cutting back and front of the page.

  3. Small img 4579

    Lay your panels down before gluing in place

  4. Small img 4581

    Glue your panels in place with PVA glue

  5. Small img 4580

    Apply a clear varnish over the top.
