Side table make over saga
As you can see in the photo, I have fulled in the holes (yes dark wood fuller, but it doesn't show once it is painted). Any ideas on what sort of decorative panel I could add here? Whew!
This is a long drawn out project but I am determined to finish it.

KatAych on Feb 11, 2016I'm sure we ALL have projects that have lingered on for far longer than we originally planned...but all progress is progress, amirite?? And how satisfying will it be when you finish it! :-) There are LOTS of decorative elements you could use on your drawer fronts (just Google "wood appliques" and click the shopping tab) - is there a particular style you're interested in?Helpful Reply

Jeanette S on Feb 12, 2016Don't fret folks...I think many of us are caught up in the winter stoppage! It seems the freezing weather hit so soon and it is long lasting and brutal. Just staying warm presents a challenge! Good luck getting this going!Helpful Reply

Nancy Palombi on Feb 12, 2016How about a fabric covered panel to go in the middle section with the knobs and leaving the outside drawer framed as you have it in white? Something similar to these pictures, just not covering the entire front side of the drawer? Make sense? It's way too early and I've not had coffee yet!Helpful Reply
