French chic hacks

Guillaume sends us two of her his hacks. One is an end table with the feet painted black and covered with coloured paper. The second is a tray, painted back and embellished with a menu of a restaurant.

Guillaume is definitely a boy's name ...

The first sentence should be:
"Guillaume sends us two of his hacks"

Phill said...

Seconded. It should read his, not her.

Guillaume said...

I'm a boy, Guillaume is the french name for William.
Thank's for publishing my hacks.

Sorry Guillaume my mistake. Correction made.

Jeez, lay off on whether or not these are "real" hacks -- did he use stuff from IKEA? Yes. Did he alter them in some way to better suit his preferences? Yes. Are they one of a kind? Yes. These might not be the most complicated hacks but they creatively take something ordinary and make it the person's own --

so Guillaume, good work, I especially like the tray w/ menu and thanks for sharing!

I want to make a table like that, what did you start with? Or did you buy it from Ikea like that? I can't find anything on the website that resembles it.

Thanks for yours nice comments !
For the table, I start with a IKEA side table (but IKEA doesn't sell it anymore). I painted the feet in black et cover the top with a poster. Then I varnish the whole.
(I hope you understand my frenchy English).

Yes, the table was called FORNBRO, was matching the MAGIKER storage family, and is not sold anymore.

Neau travail Guillaume ;) !
