The Credenza Net Project

We recently purchased a credenza for the dining room. It is a nice piece of furniture well suited for the items we want to store in it, however the top of it is black, solid black. So I wanted to make something to cover it.

I had never done a project this large out of small hole netting. I did a few sample pieces to figure out what I would try.

note: Clicking on any of the pictures will give you the much larger and more detailed original. Depending on your screen size you may be given the option to zoom in.

I tested Grecian netting alternating with Bunch netting.

Then I tried Honeycomb netting.

And some Bunch alternating with plain netting

Starting the actual net, February 2025

I put it down for most of the summer to make room for other evening projects I needed to get done. Picked it up again in September.

By December it was almost finished. (Working on it in the back seat of the car while waiting in a parking lot.)

And it was completed mid January 2026.

Unfortunately, over the time since we purchased the credenza it has gathered some objects on top. Once they are filed, I will post a picture of the net in its correct location.
