These drawers are from Kaisercraft (of course) and are a good size so can be made to suit anyone or any room.
They would be great for a student desk or for a baby's room or in this case for my Mum's sewing room!
The papers are from the Cosmo Cricket Material Girl Range and I have had them for a few years now, waiting to be made into something for mum.
I assembled the drawers by gluing all the pieces together before painting them navy blue and spraying them with a gloss finish.
I have found its just as easy to put them together and then paint, as it is to paint then assemble. It means you don't end up painting parts that will end up being covered with paper.
The actual drawers are made form a heavy chipboard so they got covered inside and out with paper (using Mod Podge). I inked around the exposed edges on the top of each drawer to finish them off.
These drawers may look like lots of work, but once you have all the papers cut and are ready to glue they are pretty quick to put together!
Once the papers are all on then it's time to add embellishments. In this case chipboard cutouts and stickers from the Material Girl range along with buttons and thread.
