altered drawers

Do You remember this set of drawers I showed you earlier in the week...
I promised to show you how I transformed them and brought them up to date.
As I have had them at least 10yrs although packed away for the last 5 I decided they needed a fresh new look.

By giving them an undercoat using Gesso (however If I did the same again I would use ordinary craft paint to give an undercoat) I then used a brown acrylic paint on them giving them a lovely look of dark wood.

Insided each of the eight drawers I painted a different colour,



I then added a 1 inch button to the front of each...now you would think I would be going to keep buttons in them but ...no....

I am using them to house some of my gorgeous beads.... my new hobby...my lovely friend Denise has turned me into a bead monster...LOL.

Thank you for looking and I have not forgotten that I have promised to show you some other 'stuff '...I have been altering.

Chris and I have had a great 48hrs crafting away and we will show you all very soon.

Have a lovely Friday tomorrow.
