Do you ever have a piece of furniture that is lacking some pep? Sometimes it can just need a little updating and although painting will suffice, you can also decoupage furniture. What's that you say? Let me show you what I'm talking about using this Art Deco waterfall chest as an example. Waterfall Chest of Drawers Before Decoupage Makeover by Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com *sidenote: While I understand some people are wood purists and chastise me for painting, I too love wood. I only paint things that won't lose value when painted. This chest is not a high-end Art Deco piece and I know that by experience. This is a copy and thus I can change it as it suits me. PLUS, it's mine! (end of rant - thank you.  :D ) I found this chest on Craigslist and in the past, I have done several different things to these waterfall chests. My most popular is my BEEP. This dude was a freebie for good reason - he was a hot mess! Volkswagen Bus Chest of Drawers | Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com Then there's my Dumpster Diva, another piece of decoupage furniture. She was left out in the cold and on her last leg. Now she shines! A left for trash dumpster dresser gets a makeover taking it from damsel in distress to Boho Chic DIVA by Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com

DIY TIME

I have done more Art Deco pieces that you can see in these posts, and I hope you can see why I enjoy them. Obviously, this chest was in sound shape and really wasn't looking that bad, although the appliques were flaking, and it had some surface damage. Not only did I want to revive this, but I wanted to give it some flair to make it shine. Side of Art Deco Waterfall Chest of Drawers Before Decoupage | Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com It has all the original Bakelite pulls with metal accents (not brass), so I thought a new look was in order to bring it up to date. First, I start with my reliable sander to get things nice and even. Next, I go to one of my favorite tools, my sprayer. Spray Shelter and Finish Max Paint Sprayer | Prodigal Pieces | prodigalpieces.com We are having some fantastic weather here and I can't resist getting to work outside and savor it all. Thankfully, the Spray Shelter helps keep the debris from getting into my work, and the Finish Max makes my job super-fast! Using the HomeRight Finish Max and Spray Shelter to Paint Furniture | Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com

PAINT TIME

Since I know that these pieces are known for bleed-through, I start with a base coat of Kilz stain blocker. Likewise, you can see the numerous ways I have put this thing to use HERE. HomeRight Finish Max Paint Sprayer for Furniture Painting | Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com For my topcoat, I chose to use the same color gray, Universal Gray by Glidden, that I used in my teen boys room makeover and my bathroom remodel. Love that soft, light color.

DECOUPAGE

Then, after two coats and curing, I am ready to add my decoupage. In past posts, I've used tissue paper, art printed online, or most anything to decoupage furniture. Today, I'm using the set of gorgeous napkins sent to me by a reader that knows my style and has become a friend. Thank you, Grace! Paper Napkins to Decoupage Furniture by Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com Since waterfall pieces tend to be sorta boring, I wanted to add some dimension to the chest drawers. All you need to decoupage is your paper, a brush, and either decoupage adhesive or watered down school glue. Both work well. Supplies to Decoupage Furniture by Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com You will want to work in small batches and apply adhesive in a thin layer to the spot you want to begin with. First, apply your paper starting at one edge and smoothing as you go. Be careful not to tug and smooth too hard. Then, once set, apply more adhesive on top to the paper to seal it. You may have a few wrinkles that you can leave for texture, or gently smooth with your brush. Also, consider if you want to wrap around edges, in this case I did. You can overlap your decoupage sheets or line them up, but feel free to experiment on a scrap piece of wood if you desire to give it a test run. Finally, your decoupage is now finished and sealed, but if you prefer, you can also add a poly topcoat for added durability. TIP: When using napkins, sometimes you need to separate them into individual sheets for easier application. Thinner material goes one smoother, but if you want texture, keep them together.

THE REVEAL

Here's my waterfall chest makeover in the new look. Create Dimension and Update to Decoupage Furniture by Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com I painted the pulls with contrasting satin white and brushed nickel since that orange Bakelite wasn't cutting it for me. The contrasting drawer fronts make for a better show and add charm to this dated piece. Decoupage Furniture Drawer Fronts on Art Deco Waterfall Chest by Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com Painted Bakelite Drawer Pull with Decoupaged Drawer | Prodigal Pieces | www.prodigalpieces.com To give it a soft glow, I went over the entire chest with a white wax. It really softens it and adds texture to the crevices and the wrinkles on the paper that I wanted to show.

I have had a waterfall chest in the garage since last spring. I love the look that you achieved with your decoupage treatment! Have you ever tried decoupage on the front using material? I've used this inside drawers, but I have some gorgeous lightweight material that I'm going to try. Let me know if you have any tips!

I know the kitchen remodeling has been dragging on and the issue with the saw slowed you down, but isn't it cool how you saw the opportunity for a mini break (apples!)

Hi Larissa: I have an armoire left from a bedroom set I painted by brush for my granddaughter. I would love to try a sprayer on that. While I don't mind the brush marks on the pieces, I do think it would look more professional if it was painted with a sprayer. Also, as mentioned above, I have a wicker sofa that needs a coat of paint. Right now, it is off white with a brown stain on it. I would rather have it a clean, crisp white. It would look much better in my sunroom! Also, I LOVE the waterfall chest you did. It is AMAZING!

I don't particularly care for Art Deco furniture but you did a beautiful job on the chest. I don't see any white product inside the handles inn the original picture of the chest. I'm just curious. How did you get the white product inside of the original handles to stay and what is that product? The handles look beautiful! I also really like the way you redid the top knobs.

Thank you! Yes, the were a higher end napkin with two layers bound together. Yes, the decoupage adhesive is also a sealant.

Ha, I just finished decoupaging a waterfall dresser the other day too. LOVE the pretty soft napkins you used on yours! Pinning to share :) I bet this beauty is going to sell quickly if it hasn't already. Glad to hear the saw blade escapade, although it took some bends and twists getting there, turned out best in your favor. Now those countertops can get finished already!

Awesome! I'll have to go see. I wish I had more time to support everyone. Never enough time in the day! I think Karen at Redoux did one the same day too. Great minds, I tell ya. Onward kitchen we go!

All your furniture and finds that you reproduce are so beautiful and unique! I try to refinish furniture and repurpose furniture and items I find. I pick up items at the dump, side of the road anywhere I can find them. I have a 4 stall shop and a connex full of furniture and stuff to redo and repurpose. My hubs is very patient with me?. I need to get me a sprayer and paint tent. Would definitely make my life easier and quicker! Thanks for sharing all your beautiful transformations.
