Default My weekend project

Well it was a long weekend for me, and I didn't want to get into anything real heavy, so a project I had been thinking about was the perfect thing to do.
I have a bunch of car related stickers that I have been hanging on to for a while, and since I don't have a Honda to put them on I had another idea..... Here's my stash


So I stuck them to a small bar table, and applied about 10 coats of clear afterward.


Now I have a corner in the garage with my table and chairs. A perfect spot to stop and drink a beer without leaving the "man cave"



What do ya think?

I should have mentioned that my toolboxes, cabinets, compressor and air tank all are covered. These were 'extras' I had lying around.

Cool idea. I'd like to have a car to do the whole stickered up race car look, but not really sure what I'd do it to atleast right now.

Nice idea! I used mine on the electric panal door in the garage. Today I hung up my old air cleaner lid and a couple spinners I purchased from a member here.

Cool idea, I have all kinds of stickers on my fridge in the garage, they cover the whole front and sides. Maybe we can get some pics of some of the things others have done with their stickers, but putting them on a car, doesn't count. What have you guys done.
