   *Optional lacquer or other
clear protective finish
   Ventilated work area

arrow_purplebrown TEXT Paint your shelf the base color. Depending on the size of your shelf, this may only require one or two little bottles of craft paint. No need to buy a quart.

arrow_purplebrown TEXT Cut your fabric or scrapbook paper to the exact size and shape you want. Be sure there's extra at the edges to fold around the back.

shelf2

arrow_purplebrown TEXT Mod Podge the fabric or scrapbook paper to the legs of your shelf, leaving the top piece your painted color.

arrow_purplebrown TEXT Lacquer the entire shelf for a nice finish. Doing so will protect the top from scratches when you start using the shelf.

arrow_purplebrown TEXT Hang them up.
