doing FUN home improvement projects! Really!
Actually, the idea was mine and the hard work was done by my dear husband, Jean, who is good at EVERYTHING. I purchased the map of the Charleston Harbor area at West Marine, the Mod Podge glue finish at Jo Ann's and the clear coat spray at Walmart.
As Jean was cutting, measuring and planning, I was in charge of watching for bubbles in the Mod Podge and timing the coats of Podge he used to cover the map. Oh, and stuffing towels under the bedroom doors to keep the very strong aroma of the clear, spray sealant from creeping in.
We did the entire project right in the dining room, with a painters drop cloth under the table.
We're thinking of getting a piece of glass cut to cover the entire table top, though, as it wil further protect the map and the table. Looks pretty good, huh?
What's next in retirement?? Anything and everything, thank you very much.
