Chest of Drawers

Sel · **Posted: 17-09-2008 , 08:36 PM** #1

got this of another "jumbletowner" went to my parents and had a root in their shed, got some white ish satin wood paint for the outside and got a pink my sister has in her room and some ceiling paint. the bottom drawer is the colour of my sisters room and then added a bit of white for the lighter colours. Had the handles for about 6 or 7 years, got them in ikea many moons ago for my future childrens room! Think they cost no more than 2 or 3 pounds!
Really proud of it and got all my four month old clothes sorted too :)

looking for a wardrobe now if anyone has one (cheeky)

love the idea of adding the pink/white to create colours, such a simple way to keep the costs down, and you know they will coordinate...
