Northwest #2: Janewheniordercoffee's Turntable-Inspired Table Re-Cover
BEFORE
Tell us the tools and resources you used for the project:
A former roommate broke the glasstop inlay of our table, so a while back we had dug an old sheet of plywood out of someone's basement. A trip to a basic fabric store and a basic craft store provided the white vinyl and a staple gun. I also used a pencil, straight-edge, regular and jumbo sharpie and a pair of scissors from home. And a book called 'Scratch Graphique,' for reference.
DURING
Share step-by-step instructions for how you completed the project:

I am so stealing this idea! I'm thinking coffee table....

WTF.

Years ago, a friend of mine made a coffeetable using a plywood top upholstered in white vinyl, with chrome legs. I have to say, the result was luxurious and fun, though I'd expected it to look more like a tacky card table. This is a great idea!

I especially like the "headphones as 3d art" you've got going on the wall.

The notations look great even without knowing what they are; so much the better that you've designed a piece of furniture that reflects your interests! Talk about bringing the Muse to the table....

Love it. Fits your space to perfection, well executed, simple, stylish, good use of existing materials.

Excellent. I'd worry about durability of the surface, but the result is a great return on investment.
