DIY Project

Hey ya'll! So I got this adorable little vanity for just $30 from a friend. Though it needs a little refinishing, it's in pretty amazing shape. This is where I do my makeup each day. 

My problem was that, since I wear powder foundation, a lot of it was ending up on the vanity and making it look dirty. Thankfully, I thought of a brilliant idea! Here's the project!!

What you'll need:

One cloth or plastic place mat (I got mine from Target for like $2 or $3

Scissors

A writing implement 

A ruler 

Step one:

Measure your place mat against your desk/vanity/table and measure how big it needs to be. Mine actually hung over the edge of the vanity, so I knew exactly where to draw the line.

Step two: 

Cut your place mat to the proper size. 

Step 3:

Put your place mat on your desk/vanity/table, and BAM! Your lovely piece of furniture is now protected. If you have used a cloth place mat, you'll be able to just throw it in the was when it gets dirty. If you used a plastic one (like I did), then you can just rinse or wipe it off easily.
