I was recently feeling that my 12 year-old computer desk didn't accurately reflect the creativity and hard work I put into my hobbies. It was bland, scratched, and beat up from all the years of use and abuse. High time for an upgrade. But, instead of throwing out a perfectly good desk and getting a new, I came up with the idea to cover it in some cool fabric. With the cost of only $11 the results are astounding if I may say so myself.
I believe it would be too difficult to provide you with a tutorial, as each person is in a different table situation. But, there a plethora of videos on Youtube that you can use for covering a table in fabric. As my table had a removable/lock-in trim I stapled it to the sides rather than the bottom then replaced the trim. That and I didn't use any glue or paint to hold the cloth down, I just made sure it stayed flat as I went rubbing out the air pockets with a ruler/meter stick. As I said before each person is different so figure out what works for you. I'm just putting out an idea so you can have a stylish/interesting gaming space.
