The best kept SECRET to fake a marble look! | marble | The best kept SECRET to fake a marble look! | By DIY with Hometalk | Giving this little side table a makeover. So the first thing I'm going to do is actually give it a coat of black paint. Now I've taken some creamy white paint and I've added water to it. I've ripped up some newspaper and I'm going to apply some of this paint. Taking pieces of the scrunched up paper. I press it into the paint and wiggle it around. Keep repeating the process until you get to the end. Now the table top is dry. I'm going to use this stencil. I'm going to give it two coats of this gloss decorator's varnish. Here's my finished table I think it looks quite effective. It's a very easy technique to do. Going to apply both these colors, the green and the blue randomly over the top. I'm now going to apply one coat of a water-based top coat. I've used some cardboard and I'm just going to cut one edge cutting very randomly on the bottom grooves in it. In here, I have some dark green paint and I've combined it with their water-based top coat. I apply green paint on top here and then taking my cardboard going to randomly scrape into it okay so then we go on to the next bit working just randomly but I decided to follow some of the contours with a metallic gold gel pen and here's my finished table I actually decided to paint the edges gold to tie in the gold that I had done on the top

Take a paper napkin and separate the two ply layers. Draw a circle and cut it out with scissors. Take the saucer and brush the deco posh glue so the bottom and sides of the saucer are covered. Place the paper napkin circle and press down in the center and smooth the napkin out. Dip a small paint brush in water and brush along the top of the saucer. Add a final layer of deco podge glue. Take a strong adhesive glue and place a ring of glue. Place the saucer on top of the bottom of the pot. You now have a beautiful clay pot candle holder. First, we're going to spray paint. I'm using Rust Oleum, Satin Heirloom White, and Rust Oleum stone. We're going to take some painters tape. You kind of want to rough tear one edge of it. We're going to put this along the bottom I'm using a craft paint and I'm just using brushed gold. You kind of want to make it look like the the paint is kind of tearing and you can see underneath it. Alright, so here's the finished product and I absolutely love how they turned out. Have a cylinder vase from the Dollar Tree. This epoxy pen holder on Amazon and I'm going to basically just trace, alright? So, now that I have hollowed out the center. I want to make sure that the paint doesn't necessarily sink in to the foam. So, to create a barrier and something that'll dry relatively quickly. Mod Podge or like Elmer's Glue, we're going to use a Dixie Belle Paint. These two foam boosters really have transformed into chic and modern decor. The first step is just to make sure this is really clean. To start with, I want to use some gold leaf adhesive. I am just going to let this sit for about 20 minutes. Now, we're going to get out the gold leaf sheets. Now, you want to use a tweezer and a dry paint brush with this. As I'm going along, I'm going to use the paint brush and it's going to pull away any of the excess and then we're ready to move on to the next step. Now, we're going to add some paint but we're going to paint the inside of this vase and it has the look of a white ceramic vase with a beautiful antique kind of rustic gold finish at the top. I sourced a couple things from the Dollar Tree so I'm going to be using the Rust Oleum Milk Paint. We are going to add our hot glue, put it into the corner. So, we're going to do this in all four corners. So, once that kind of sets, we're going to flip it over and do the other side. We are going to be taking our smaller pieces and we're going to be creating an X shape and then, I'm going to come in with my hot glue gun. We are going to glue these together. Painting it the same color as we did the other pieces. We are going to hot glue. Alright, so we're going to let this dry here for a moment and that's where this comes into place. Just need this piece. We're going to clip off this piece. We're going to paint it So now that this is all glued and dried, I take a little bit of hot glue and I'm going to put it in the hole. Now that we've attached the tumbling tower pieces so I can go over the edges. And here's the finished product of my chic distressed farmhouse lantern. I really love how it came together.

Grab a scrap board. Take the thick end. We're going to get a nice clean hole and we're going to do this to all of our shims. What we're going to do is take a towel and just dip it in there. Make sure it's all covered. Just wipe it on there. The sticky points that go into the ground. We don't need those. It's just going to snap right off. Now, we're going to grab us some copper wire. We're going to put that through the shim with the hole in it. Just use it like a twist dye. Go all the way around. Once you get the second layer done, we're going to grab us solar light from Dollar Tree. Take off that small part on the bottom, the steak. We don't need that and let it float right in the middle. Now, we're going to work on that last circle and when the knife starts to fall, watch this, that thing is going to light up and you don't even have to turn it on or off. It works its magic automatically and recharges during the day. Headed down to local Dollar Tree. Grab some rope, some clear bottles, and some cool little lights is take the hook off the top of the light. Next, we're going to take the bulb off. Next, we need to take the light mechanism and pop it out. What we need to do is paint this cover. Now, in the bottle, we have a cork here. We can go ahead and just remove that. Next, I grabbed off of Amazon a bottle cutter. Put the bottle on the rollers and you go ahead and start turning it. What you want to do is hear this noise. That means you're cutting right through the bottle but it won't cut all the way through. Gonna show you a little cut line on there. Stick the bottle in the boiling water for a good 30 seconds. Once you got it in there and it's heated up immediately, go ahead and put it in icy cold water. It's going to separate along the score line and look at that. Perfect. Takes off the bottom and you got a nice, flat, smooth line. Put the lights back through our painted cover and clip it back on. Take some E 6000 glue and place it around the edge. Take some hot glue and put it in the areas I didn't put the E6000 on. That's going to hold the cover in place while the glue is dry. Gonna stick the lights inside the bottle, set the cover on top, then we're going to take that rope, stick some hot glue on neck of the bottle, let that hold, and then we're going to start wrapping it all the way around the neck and then take this extra twine. We're going to put it through the hook. I made three of these and we put them up and it made a perfect summer afternoon. This tapered candle holder I found at a thrift store. I added silicone to each holder spot and then added the top of a solar light to each one. I let it dry for twenty-four hours and it's ready to go outside. Using a stencil or free hand, you can paint or you a Sharpie to draw on your numbers. Add some glass rocks or any decoration inside you like. Add some water as it will amplify the light reflection. Pull your solar light apart and you only need the top piece. Place that inside the lid of the mason jar and screw the lids back on. You'll need three different size terracotta pot. This is so they'll stack easily. Start by painting your terracotta pots whatever color you like. Pull the solar light apart and cut the little stem off the solar light to make it flat. Add silicone to the base of the solar light and put it on the top of the terracotta pots for your light. Using some more paint or sharpies, draw on your windows or any other decorations you'd like. Once it's dry, you're all set to go. You can put it outside and enjoy it.

Too much to do and nowhere to store it. So I'm going to head down to my hardware store and I'm going to grab some good lumber. A one by three and one by twos. Make sure you get them pretty straight. On two of these eight foot boards we're going to mark them right in half a little bit above the four foot mark. Then I'm going to cut them. Now we're going to set two of these legs aside because we're going to work on one side at a time. Take these two legs, separate them, and then we're going to start building a box. As you can see, I'm going to use glue. Glue is so strong compared to screws or nails. So what you do is you take good wood glue. You separate it out. Put the board on top. Now I'm just going to use little brad nails to hold it in place. This is going to allow the glue to dry and it's going to be super strong. We're going to box this out and then once we get the two sides built we're going to measure the basket and it comes out to about twenty-four inches. As you can see that's how we have to separate it. Build the top and the bottom. Again using the one by threes. Just use these and this could be a one person job. If you use a clamp to hold it in place on one side. Now, as you can see, the box is starting to form. If it's a little bit off, don't worry. We'll take care of that when it comes to sanding. We'll go on the other side. Again, using glue and little bit of brad nails. Now, it's time to build the top. Again, using one by threes on the top. I'm going to do five of these. Again, as you can see, I got glue. Now, it's time to build the racks and the sliders that the baskets will go on. I'm going to put some glue down again along the sides as I measure it out for three baskets all equal up and down. This one doesn't use a one by three, uses a one by 2. We'll put this in place again with glue and using the brad nails to hold it in place. See that little bevel I put on the side that so it doesn't catch the basket. Here's the top, you can see the five slots that I put in. Now, this is the facial board that I'm going to put in. It fits really nice but we want to hold it in place again. This is where we can put little letterings or signs on. Using the brad nail, hold it in place. We'll we do that, it's time to sand. Now, the reason you want to sand is it takes stain and everything better but I've got a secret. We're not going to use stain on this. I'm going to use something different but don't be intimidated. We're going to use a torch. That's right. We're going to burn this wood and give it a special look. As you can see here, I'm showing you that it can go too fast and it won't do the job. What you gotta do when you're using a torch, don't be nervous, go a little bit slow see how when we do that it brings the grain out it doesn't burn all the wood it just takes that wood grain and really sets it apart giving it a very dark look now it looks like it could possibly be burning the wood that's only temporary it just gives it a nice shine and then you can finish it off with some poly now here is the final project I used my cricket machine put a laundry symbol on it and decorated it up and it turned out amazing three baskets tall, and a little shelf on top to hold things. There's that bevel right there so the baskets don't get caught when I'm putting them on and look at that. You can barely see any of the nails because we use glue to hold it together. With all the laundry in, it's still super strong and it slides in and out with ease. It's great for the family and they absolutely loved it. Laundry time now doesn't have to be a chore. I hope this inspired you to build your own DIY Laundry Basket Rack. Thank you for watching Hometalk and we'll see you next time.
