For this project I started with six of the eleven by three canvases from Dollar Tree and four of the five by five wooden pallets or boxes, so first I remove the fabric from the long canvases and, as I mentioned in the bonfire project, I think the fabric from the newer canvases from Dollar Tree are much easier to remove so all I do is just make a little shelter on the side of this

table

and I pull the fabric and in the corners I use pliers to pull the fabric and it comes out well. So once they were ready I set them aside and then started working on my wooden box pallet.

Now there are actually two different ones that you can use depending on what is available at your local Dollar Tree store. The ones I like the most and think are the strongest are the ones with a little pop-up in the middle. I have used them several times before. All I do is just push the corners with my thumb. I simply push out the inner center piece. and the second option you have are the seasonal

decor

ative boxes and they have a solid hard front, but with the seasonal winds I think it's a little harder to remove the front or the center will come off, you just have to push them a little.

Harder, plus I don't think they are that strong so I would definitely use a nice thick layer of wood glue on the corners to help reinforce the strength if you choose to use them. In fact, it's probably a good idea to do them. all like that anyway another thing you could do is add a staple or a couple of staples to the corners on one side and that would also make them a lot stronger so once they are all prepped and ready I start on the canvases long. Make sure you place the staple side face down, and of course you know you can remove the staples if you choose to do so next.

I center one of these smaller five-by-five wooden boxes or platforms on top of the long canvas and then glue those two together. along with a permanent adhesive and hot glue, so I have the first one glued on, it becomes a lot easier, so I just use my ruler and make sure everything lines up and I'll continue working on all the other points. until I have a total of three of the long campuses and two of the smaller ones between them, then of course I repeat this again to give myself a second leg for my

table

. Then I will paint all the pieces with white spray paint primer. and then I used a white glitter.

I painted these before with acrylic paint and that works and looks great too so that's another option so once they are painted and dry I trim the borders or borders around the little outline with mosaic

mirror

s. one side and then used that he is dominant on the other. Now the only reason I didn't do both sides the same is because I had already started with the small

mirror

s and then realized I didn't think I had enough to do both sides front and back. I think the

dollar

tree

in hazelnut looks great in this. They are both easy to cut, peel and stick, so once my legs are ready to go I'll set them aside and start with the top of the mirror, now you have a few options for this.

What I have is a 12 by 20 inch beveled mirror from Michaels and I paid about $4 for it in the regular 7 or 8 process, they always offer a 40 or 50% discount. On his website you can use it on a regular priced item and I'll just open it on my phone in the store. Another option is that you can connect four of the five-by-seven mirrors from Dollar Tree. You can connect them together like I did. on my

large

vanity tray that I made when I will link it below if you want to see it now when these two are next to each other they are very close in size but if you want an even bigger table you can attach a four of

dollar

tree

s, 8 by 10 mirrors put together any way and any size, they cost about the same money, but I think the 12 by 20 mirror is better quality, it's thicker and it's the best bang for your buck , plus it's beveled, so I start by turning them over. the mirror upside down and just like the small mirrors from Dollar Tree these have those little legs or little foam legs so I outlined them and I wanted to add a little embellishment right before I attached the legs directly to the mirror so when I tried a few different things and what turned out perfect were two of Daughtry's eight by 10 picture frames, so I remove the glass and backing and remove the tabs with pliers, use clear glue and hot glue to stick the frame to the back part. from the mirror and immediately I was able to lift the frame up and I could see how secure it was to the mirror, so next I'm going to glue some of those wooden jingle boxes along the inside notch of the frame to help reinforce the strength and stability once I had this is how it ended up and of course I repeated everything on the other side and to add more stability I use some smaller picture frame pieces that I have now these specific ones are the silver five by seven frames I glued the seven One inch frame pieces are hollowed out over the row of wood blocks at the ends where my legs would go and I separate another five by seven frame in half forming an L and glue it together to help reinforce the strength of the structure . much more before I add my legs now I'm ready for my legs so I put a generous amount of glue on the platform we just created and place the top of my table leg where the mosaic mirrors face outwards and the dominant The rep is facing in and I can tell right away that he gripped really well, so I repeated this again for my other leg.

Then I'll add some reinforcing braces to each corner, which I think is the most important step so far. quality and durability are the reinforcements that make the difference, so I'll have a bunch of frame pieces from previous Dollar Tree projects. You know, I had already taken them apart, but for this I'm using the little 4 inch frame pieces from the 4 by 6 frames from Dollar Tree once I have the easel on the back I add a little bit of glue to both ends and then I attach it to the base of the table and the legs, which gives this tremendous support to the overall structure now you will want to lift and remove the shiny support in the corners and make sure you glue them directly to the wood and it turns out that you cut them in angle on these frames and the size they fit into are perfect so I repeated this for each corner and felt it was sturdy enough to hold up well but I decided to go ahead and add some countersunk screws so for this I use a drill bit to 3/8 wood in the center where each piece connects and then I added a small screw and now I'm glad I did this step because it didn't take more than a couple of minutes and, you know, it made it a lot stronger since it the table is upside down when I do this. or if you want to do it this way and you choose to do this step, you can leave the hole as is or add a little gem over the hole because it won't be seen, but I went ahead and added a little gem. a little bit and then placed a gem right over the hole on the other side in that same area.

I glued three one inch craft mirrors in the center. This is of course optional, but what happened to me is that I used a couple of screws. which were a little too long. I tried to find short ones, but I had two that were too long and just scratched them a little, so this will help hide any flaws and add dimension to this design. finally i added some glitter around the

large

frame or border and used a roll of ribbon and this came from Hobby Lobby. I cut 20 inches of the tape and then cut it into four strips that covered everything around the table plus the gussets once I was done with that I stood my new table upright and this is the final result.

I love this design in the construction of this. I hope you did too, whatever you decide to do. I hope you enjoy it and as always. happy crafting my friend, see you next time
