Apr 09, 2020
breathe in the air the light around me if we stay together hello guys here is the essentials of youtube so I have been getting a lot of requests on how to change this

plastic

drawer card into a

nightstand

or

glam

orous storage

cart

. What I'm going to do now is show you how I analyze the

cart

. The next thing I did was check the sides and then I noticed that it was a little straight so that's good for me but the front has curves so that will give me a little bit of work with the design I have in mind.

I'll start by covering the drawers and Note, guys, the bottom here is straight and the top is slanted down a little bit. I took the three pieces and spray painted them silver. I took one and then I'm going to generously coat the top with mod podge and I'm using the shiny mod podge.

I decided much later that I'd like to have something more on the side, so I'll use a paper towel to wipe the mod podge down the sides. Now I'm going to use masking tape to cover the sides, the next thing I'm going to do is sprinkle crushed mirror glass around it. I also use this crushed mirror glass and this is the one I have the link for in the description box below. I repeated what I did in the rest. two boards and then let them dry for a few hours. I removed the tapes and then shook the excess pieces off the mirror.

I'm going to put this back in a container for another project. The mirror pieces were made one way. which won't cut you, but then just to make sure you have a nice surface, you can have a super glazed look using epoxy or you can use several coats of mod podge so it's touchable, so mod podge was what I used. At the end of the day the next thing I'm going to do is attach the boards to the

plastic

drawers. Remember that because of the knock here I'm going to have to give it a tilted look. I'm going to make sure that the drawer is perfectly fitted in the center.

I'm also going to leave very little space at the bottom. I'm going to push it up a little bit, this is just to make sure the drawers move freely. I'm going to cover the open part. spaces on the sides and top after cutting the pieces I realized I can use a cake plate so I'm going to cut all the pieces I need from this cake plate because it saved me the hassle of spray painting or cover it with mirror reflective paper I went ahead and labeled the pieces so it would be easier for me to know which piece belongs on which side this is how I measured the piece for the top, the larger pieces on the sides will be attached to the plastic and Then the smaller pieces on top will be attached with strong adhesive and a hot glue gun.
I wanted to use cake plates for the edges that are in front of the drawer cart, but then I changed my mind because I wanted to be really nice, so I picked up mirror sheets and have a link for this in the description box below. It reflects like a real mirror and is also self-adhesive because I used tape for the edges. I'm going to use the same measurements for the masking tape and it's just an inch and measure it on the mirror sheets, cut them out and then attach them. The length of the mirror sheet is not long enough to cover this side, so I'm just going to cut two equal pieces and join them together like this.
I want to make a pretty knob, so what I did was collect these items. This is what they use to hold mirrors on the back of a mirror pack like this one. I never throw these things away because I know that sooner or later I will use them. I will spray paint them silver and glue pearls around them and use a strong adhesive and a hot glue gun. I left the middle part because I will use the screwdriver to screw this in. in the drawer is after I'm done with that before I use the strong adhesive and glue on the rest now for the body of the car I scrape the front and some of the silver sides then I took a piece of particle board which was a leftover from another project, I cut it to measurements for the sides, spray painted them silver and then attached them after I was done, placed the canvas panel on top and then glued the mirror on top and of course I could cover the Everything I covered the open spaces with mirror tiles, these are the drawers and then I inserted them inside the cart and this is what they look like all together.
I covered the screw heads with gems, this is what the plastic card looks like now. a transformation, it was a challenge because of the curved front, but I think it looks good, here are some before and after photos, this actually turned out better than I imagined. Now, let's stay strong, stay positive and encourage each other during this crisis. Don't forget your prayers because that is also very important. I hope everyone enjoyed this video.
