Repurposed Upcycled Sewing Machine Drawer Wall Organizers

I ran across these great wood arch-designed panels that were probably from an armoire or some older piece of furniture. I had been trying to think of different ways to reuse vintage sewing machine drawers and came up with this matching pair of panels.
I cut the sewing drawers in half and mounted them. And also used the small swivel drawers that you find on most vintage and antique sewing machines in the center as the base drawers on my new pieces. Some old locker numbers individualize each halved drawer and a vintage drawer handle accents the top. I used old hinges at the top for mounting from old sewing machine cabinets also. The silver paint is Modern Masters Metallic Silver. The stretched ruler tape is from a very old cloth/canvas measuring tape spool.
