Drawer Flip

What do you do when you have an unattractive dresser from the 70's and a blank empty space in need of something to help maximize its space? Flip those ugly dresser drawers into gorgeous bathroom shelves - that's what! These drawers provided me with a creative way to use the vertical space in this bathroom nook where I'll keep guest toiletries, extra toilet paper, and bathroom towels. I wasn't sure how this would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised how easy this project ended up being.
Take off any and all hardware from the drawer and put aside to reassemble later.
I decided to layer black and white chalk paint on the drawers. This is where you get to have fun updating these old drawers and having them fit into whatever design scheme you've got going on.
Now, all you have to do is place the face of the drawer in front of each shelf so it looks like the drawer is completely in tact. Make sure it is level and nail it in place. Replace the hardware.
Enjoyed the project?
