Table Top I Designed For My Little Boy. Original Artwork by @woman-onthe-wing

in #art7 years ago (edited)


I decided to transform this little table from IKEA into something more exciting!  After drawing and colouring the design on a large piece of thin card, I glued it to the surface of the table top, covered it with sticky-back plastic, unscrewed the table frame and inserted the table top, and then screwed it tight again.  I did the little chair too.  Easy, personal, and so effective!  I even included a road for all his little toy cars as they're his absolute favourite.  Now he uses it to play on, and eat his dinner on too.  

I love getting creative with all kinds of crafty things... I find it to be very therapeutic.  Colouring has become quite a popular thing now for adults... mindful colouring they call it.  I'm glad it's a 'thing' now... anything that contributes to stress reduction is a very good thing.  There's waaaay too much stress I see in people's faces these days!

Your post up is impressive. Followed @woman-onthe-wing

Much appreciated, thank you @deepweeb

So creative and inspiring!

It's fabulous artwork! So beautiful but unfortunately i don't know how to draw a nice painting like that for my little daughter.

Thanks @creativewoman, you're very kind! If you wanted to make one without drawing you could make a collage from children's books or magazines :-)

That is adorable he will have so much fun playing with his cars.
Sky is bigger now, have to pop back into your posts, he has grown so much he's not a little baba anymore.

Hi @biglipsmama! Nice to hear from you :-) Yeah, he's getting so big, where does the time go!!!

Hey there Big Lips! Haven't seen you post anything in a while. Life throw something at you unexpected? Thanks for resteeming one of my latest post. Notice I haven't been complaining or talking about walking from steemit anymore. I'm not getting rich, but after making some changes and just following through with my posting, things are very much on the up and up. I've reached out to some whales and they have responded. Made a world of difference. @gavvet threw a bot on me, and it's upped my earnings and my rep big time. It's nice being a bit out of the weeds and seeing my efforts rewarded. Hope you are well. -Dan
