If you’re ever looking for a fun, easy project to do around the house, mod podge furniture can be a GREAT option! With just a few simple supplies and some creativity, you can give an old piece of furniture a brand new look. And best of all, mod podging is a relatively cheap way to update your decor. So if you’re ready to take on a fun DIY project that is budget friendly and shows off your personality, then check out some AMAZING mod podge furniture ideas I found. 

Easy Mod Podge Furniture Ideas

This list is full of some AMAZING examples of ways to Mod Podge furniture. I hope they get you all excited about whatever furniture remodel you are looking to tackle. From a small desk in your daughter’s room to a large hutch from your Grandma’s house, this list is bound to give you the ideas and inspiration you need to be successful. Check out some of my very FAVORITES to get you started!

Painted Entryway Wood Cabinet

Cassie, over at Little Red Window, is a magician with her Mod Podge Furniture Makeover skills. I can’t get over how a simple piece of pretty paper and a bit of paint can TRANSFORM such an ordinary piece into a statement piece. Get all of her tips and tricks about this little entryway cabinet here to see how you can do it too!

Sheet Music Side table

She said it herself, this table was a “Yawn” table from the start. You know, the one that is extra boring, it puts you to sleep just looking at it. Well, no longer with this simple addition of SHEET MUSIC! So stinking creative, I can’t get over it. Check out how Miss Mustard Seed helped this little table AWAKEN the space it sits in with a little bit of Mod Podge and sheet music.

Fabric Lined Drawers with Mod Podge

Mod Podge is a friend to all. Even FABRIC. This DIY Makeover Project was one that took some time and inspiration before becoming complete. Never losing hope and relying on a bit of Mod Podge and the right fabric, this DESK MAKEOVER is finally done. So many great ideas from Mod Podge Rocks. Be sure to check them out, especially this one. 

How to Adhere Burlap to Furniture

I have said it before and I will say it again. You can’t beat BURLAP! I love it so much. A little too much, if you ask my husband. But this OUTSTANDING idea from Canary Streets Crafts is one that I am sure you will love too! Oh Burlap and Mod Podge, you will always have a special place in my heart. Don’t you agree?

Mod Podge Chair

Decoupage might be hard to say, but it is NOT HARD to do. This idea from Designer Trapped shows you how to transform your old furniture to get an UPHOLSTERED look with an amazing detailed tutorial. You will not want to skip over this one. It is budget-friendly and a beautiful idea for all sorts of furniture makeovers.

French Mod Podge Fabric Table

I promise you have seen this table in your great grandma’s home. Maybe you have even spotted it at the thrift store EVERY time you make your way back to the furniture section. This DIY Mod Podge Furniture makeover from Uniquely Chic Mosaics is the reason you need to be thankful that your grandma held onto that table for so long, or that you finally decided to buy it while thrifting. To find out how to get this look from DRAB to FAB, follow along with her great steps.

Paper Stripped Dipped Legs Decoupage Stool

Wrapping paper, paint, and Mod Podge was all it took to make this boring old stool become a thing of BEAUTY. I love the UNIQUE design Kathy from Petticoat Junction created with the different lengths of paper used up along the stool’s legs. You DEFINITELY want to check out how to do this DIY y’all! You won’t be sorry that you did.

Quick and Easy Paper Application for Furniture

You had me at QUICK and EASY! Painted by Kayla Payne was telling the truth too when she said it. This idea is the perfect way to kick your furniture up a notch, even when you didn’t think it needed it. I love the way she writes, she works, and she wins when it comes to DIY Furniture Makeovers! You will too!

How to Update a Hand Me Down Dresser

We have all had one at least once in our lives – the dreaded hand me down dresser. And this post makes you see those old dressers as BLESSINGS, instead of big, heavy, wooden burdens. Especially when they have a little bit of BEAUTY added to them. Thanks to Mod Podge, some paint, and some added EMBELLISHMENTS to the existing drawer pulls, this makeover is simply MAGICAL. To feel inspired to take on your hand me down dresser,  be sure to take a look at how you can too can update a hand me down dresser just like Diane from In My Own Style Did.

$2 Thrift Store Table Makeover

Ahhh, the joy of finding a furniture piece at a thrift store and only spending $2 for it…. There is not much better! Except when you see the finished product of your Mod Podge Furniture makeover. That is definitely better! I can’t get over how great this little table turned out, and I owe it all to someone who decided to donate. I love this table so much. Take a look at exactly how I got his look.

Vanity Makeover

There is just something about the word FREE! It makes the entire experience seem even more gratifying. I especially love a challenge to take something that is already pretty cute, to begin with, but enhances it just a bit to have my own personal touch and style on it. This FREE vanity makeover was so much fun to do and my girl loves it. What do you think? Check out how you too can have this same look, and fingers crossed the vanity you get is FREE as well!

Which is YOUR FAVE makeover?!?!?! These are only a few, but man…they are some good ones, am I right??

    Then comes the desk with the octopus print in the drawe (OMGEEE I love it) AND the chest of drawers where the side of the drawers have mod Podge fabric on the sides. LOVE IT !!

    Fav; I love the ‘painted entry way wood cabinet.’ It makes this type of cabinet stand out, so that you want to go over and explore it.
    But I also love ???? so many more. Like the black table, my grandmother had that piece.
    I can just see a mismatched tea set on that beautiful table…
    I really enjoy changing pieces…
    Thank you always for enjoyable, beautiful, unique ideas.
    I hope you and your family are doing well.

I also really like the little desk chair that they covered with bright colored fabric and of course Mod Podge. Great addition to the blog Brooke! Thanks for the inspection!!!!

    I love mod lodging anything I can. Even if i fail i try again….. I’m in midst of working on HUGE surprise craft for my rock of so many years earning a BS degree. But I pray by summer I can get some major crafts done to inspire others. Your creativity have inspired other major crafters & hunters of thousands of crafters who don’t have a page. But your creativity speaks volume. Thank you so much for giving us all an “idea” ❤️
