Colorfully Covered Tiny Drawers

This from Living Beautifully is pretty cute lookin' -  These cheery colors and designs would brighten up any room.  What a way to repurpose!

This lovely look inspired me...

Do you remember this photo from an earlier post?

Do you see the little drawers at the right - the shelf unit and the chest unit below it?

I like the colors, but they were a bit dark and I was tired of that combination ..., so ..., 

That look became this look -

Can you see the difference?  They are a bit more cheery now ...,

 

I left the shelf sections the same painted cream color and glued paper on the front of each drawer.  And, I only used scrap pieces - awesome huh?!?!?!

The hardest part was getting those little knobs off.

Sanding the drawers to give them an antique look was easier than taking those off.

I put paper on the top of the chest of drawers, but did not on the top of the shelf unit.  I didn't want to take it off the wall and since we can't see the top of it I didn't think it needed covered.

 I love their new colors!

I think there is one more thing I need to do before I can call it done - I left some of the knobs their original dark color, but painted all the blue - that green peg on the shelf should be blue too.

I think the others can stay the color they are. 

It doesn't look so bad in person, but in the photo above I really notice it and I don't like it so much.

Now maybe I'm done with my stuff room?????

Well ... until something else inspires me!!!!!
