HOW TO TRANSFORM A VINTAGE VANITY
Our friend Angie (@howwedo208) has an adorable makeup vanity that she was able to transform in just a few easy steps! This turned an ordinary looking vanity into one with character.
Watch Angie’s process in the video below.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
- A makeup vanity
- Wallpaper of your choice
- Marble tile
- Decorative mirror trim
- Wood trim
- Embellishments
- Loctite® PL Premium Max Construction Adhesive
- Loctite® Extreme Glue
For a written breakdown explaining how Amber restored her vanity, take a look at the steps below!
Directions
1. CUT YOUR TRIM
The first step is to measure the perimeter of your vanity countertop space. Using a thin wood trim, you’re going to cut according to those measurements. This will create a frame for your tiles to fit into. Using Loctite® PL Premium Max Construction Adhesive, secure the trim pieces to your vanity.
3. GROUT YOUR TILES
You can grout your tiles using any color grout that you want. This is going to give your design that finishing touch. Angie opted for white grout for her tiles.
4. CUT AND APPLY WALLPAPER
This step will give your vanity that extra little touch! Angie took a vintage-looking wallpaper and cut it to fit inside the bottom of her vanity drawers. You can use an Loctite Extreme glue for this step.
And that’s it! We hope this project was able to inspire you to take that old furniture piece you have lying around and restore it into something worth showcasing.
