Dresser Revamp


Materials:
  • Dresser
  • Wrapping Paper
  • Staple gun
  • Washi Tape
  • Baskets
  • Drawer hardware
  • Screw driver
My poor tired dresser from college needed an update bad!  With a few quick fixes it has a brand new look in basically one day.  

I took out two of the drawers to create an open space for baskets on the top portion.  To cover the backer I stapled some pretty wrapping paper.  To outline the edges of the dresser I used washi tape that happened to be the exact width of the edges.  I love this product because it went on quickly and if I get tired of the solid black look I can change it out to whatever I want next.  There are so many washi tape designs to choose from.  Lastly I removed the lame plastic drawer pulls and replaced it with a more modern metal look.  The new drawer hardware was about $5 each from home depot.
