What KC creates

I love a good thrift flip… but this time I decided to makeover something I already owned. 😊

This lazy Susan had been sitting on my kitchen table for years, and honestly? I just wasn’t loving it anymore.

So out came the sander, spray paint, and some gorgeous decoupage paper. Then I sealed everything under a coat of UV resin to make it extra durable for everyday use. And because I can never resist a good detail, I added half spheres around the edge to create a bobbin trim look (because I’m absolutely obsessed with bobbin trim lately).

Now it’s less “lazy Susan” and more “functional art” sitting right in the middle of my kitchen table. 💙

Follow along for more creative DIYs, thrift flips, and upcycling projects… I’ve got a million ideas and no plans to stop anytime soon. 😄

I had a perfectly adorable mushroom lamp.

And then I remembered I have a hot glue gun and an unhealthy obsession with resin flowers. 😂
(By the way- I linked the resin mould I used on this video. Just click that link to get the one I used)

So naturally, I made a bunch of flowers, glued them around the base, heated them with my hairdryer so I could mold them to the curve, wrapped everything up with painter’s tape while they cooled, and waited for the magic to happen.

The verdict? SO much cuter.

At this point, I’m convinced the answer to every crafting question is resin flowers. Need to update something? Resin flowers. Too plain? Resin flowers. Exist in the vicinity of a glue gun? Resin flowers.

Anyone else currently hyper-fixated on one craft supply?

This desk was completely trashed! I got it secondhand years ago and it sat in my garage and acted as a workbench for quite some time. It had seen better days. But can you believe I was able to cut it into two and make it into these gorgeous nightstands? It's amazing what some imagination, some power tools and gorgeous paint will do!
