a touch of class for ikea mini chests

another ikea mini chests hack and this one by trixi totally rocks. i’m loving the pattern, color combo and very smart idea.

“first I painted it white,” says trixi, “then i took those beautiful habitat paper napkins (which were part of a present I once got – and they were too pretty to use them only as napkins and throw them away afterwards).

i cut them into pieces to fit the drawers. next i placed the square pieces on the front of the drawers and painted them with clear varnish to fix them. that’s it!” link.
