Whilst still being hung up on the coolness of wall decals (see my previous post on Wall Decals here), I found this on my favourite DIY site, instructables.com. This instructable by Code128 teaches you how to ‘etch’ designs onto the underside of your glass table. It’s a great DIY project if you still aren’t sold to splashing some cash to buy decals and sticking them on the your table.

Whichever method suits you, I’d just like to say that decals sure are a great great way to add life not just to walls and mirrors. Stretch your imagination and extend the possibilities of applying decals on all sorts of items in the house. Here are some of the household items I can think of off the top of my head where decals can be applied

• the electric box, you know that ugly grey box that sticks out from the wall near the entrance to most homes? liven it up
• your microwave oven door
• windows
• tv cabinet, shoe rack, wardrobe doors- get contrasting colours
• plastic chairs
• your laptop/computer/game console/subwoofer
• washing machine, dryer to brighten up a bland laundry area/yard
