Furniture Embellishment

Here is an idea I've tried on furniture embellishment.

 Supplies Needed

Acrylic Paint
Upholstery nail head tacks
Mallet
Fabric for the trim
Leather scraps
Fabri Tac Permanent adhesive glue
Heat n Bond (only if you're using fabric trims)

The rustic night stand below was originally just a plain wood night stand, I found in Mexico.
You can use a plain wooden night stand and get the same effect.

I added leather to the side panels, and front door with Fabri Tac Permanent adhesive glue.
The fabric trim on the drawer front, and side panels is made by pressing Heat n Bond to
the back of the fabric, then cutting out fabric strips. The Heat n Bond keeps the fabric
edges from unraveling. I added black upholstery trim (gimp), around the inside edges
of the raised drawer and side edges.You can find upholstery gimp at any upholstery
supply store, or fabric store. This idea can be used on headboards, end tables, chest of drawers,
mirrors, and night stands.
