My Hybrid Project for today

I found this old wooden set of drawers in my daughters room unused and unloved and thought Ooooo i know just the thing for that, but as you can see it was a little tatty sooooooo i set to work with it ......


And this is what i ended up with, with my crafting spot being in my klitchen i choose a co ordinating colour painted the edges and covered it in paper, I used one of my favorite digi papers from the digi kit Spontanious Delight by Carrie Stephens and added little logo's on the drawers so i can see at a glance what is in each drawer, while i was there i also covered my change tin in the same paper i think they look pretty good hope yo like them :)


Question:- When you cover things in paper should you coat them in somthing so you can clean them or do you leave as is ?????

well done hunny this is just fab. You could try sticky back plastic, especially on the drawers (easy to put it on a flat surface) otherwise I don't really know.

Oh what a great job you did! You can try getting a clear gloss coat spray..that might work, not sure.
