Faux Marble Table DIY

We have had our living room furniture for seven-plus years now and my end tables have definitely seen better days. They are still in great condition, aside from scratches and cup rings on the top.

I decided to cover the tops of my end tables with a faux marble contact paper. I found all the things I needed on Amazon. No surprise there.

DIY Marble Table. - A Cup Full of Sass

Here is what you will need:

  • Faux Marble Contact Paper
  • Smoothing Tool
  • X-Acto Knife
  • Scissors

I wiped the table clean before I started. Next, I removed the backing of the contact paper. At that time I realized the paper was not as sticky as I would have thought. I mean it’s sticky, but if you needed to pull the paper up a little to smooth out an air bubble, you should be able to do that.

I then placed the contact paper on one side of the table and had some of the paper hanging down over the edge. This way you can wrap the sides of the table. Any extra pieces you can trim off using the X-Acto Knife.

Use the smoothing tool to help smooth out the faux marble contact paper. You can also use your hands to smooth and press out any bubbles. I still got a few air bubbles. I did not have any help, but an extra pair of hands could be helpful.

Now for the corners. I used the X-Acto Knife to make a slit at the corners edge. Then fold that piece over the corner.  It was a little tricky, but I figured it out. It’s not perfect, trust me. But neither was the table before I started. I knew I couldn’t make it look any worse than it already did.

I just can’t believe how much this changed the look of my table. Actually, it changed the way my living room looked too. I absolutely love it! I am trying to decide if I want to do the same thing to my sofa table and tv stand.

I also have a short video below showing how I did it.

    very nice. I wonder how it would hold up on the sofa table? Do you mean coffee table? I have found by going to Habitat for Humanity my friends and I have found marble and other great items to use at home , so much cheaper then the regular store. You go girl,, I am loving what you do.

Staying home is more important now than ever befor Staying home is more important now than ever before. Being sick or having a sick child looks a little different these days. The last place anyone wants to be is at a doctor's office sitting in a waiting room with other ill people. Now because of @ssm_health virtual visits, you can see a virtual doctor from the safety and comfort of your home by using your mobile device or computer. No insurance needed and the cost is only $25. It's so convenient. I have a full blog post sharing how I use it. See the direct link in my bio for more information.
