Hi, Can you please provide more information? What in your kitchen would you like to make out of old drawers?
Are you referring to a specific project ?
HI Kkm,
You would need to build boxes with the hardware to hold the drawers. This will only work if the drawers are the same size and in good condition. I really have never seen someone do this, but that would be the principle of how to do it. If you have a dresser, you can paint that to go in kitchen for drawers. Most drawers aren't big enough to make into cabinets unless you take them apart and use the wood to build the boxes and the doors then add the hardware. Good luck.
