Shabby Chic Upcycled Drawers Using glass knobs & an old duvet!

Last year we alerted NZ Homestyle magazine to our new product range of knobs. We sent them some photos taken by a customer who had used them as part of a gorgeous Upcyling project.

The magazine LOVED the result so much that they wrote the below piece on their Blog.

 

 

Upcycled Drawers

This DIY project was sent into us by Justine Gradon, who with a little bit of time and a couple of new accesories has transformed a set of tired old drawers into a feature piece for her spare bedroom.

This upcycled project stays true to the name as Justine saved the very shaky rimu drawers from a trip to the dump. "I rescued them for the benefit of the guests who come to stay in my guest room." After sanding and oiling the body of the cabinet, Justine applied fabric from an old duvet cover using Mod Podge - an all in one sealer, glue and finish.

Finished with six lovely antique glass drawer handles from the Vintage Knob collection from Cadlow Trading the job was complete.

We think the results are outstanding, well done.
