If you have seen my recent posts, you have seen where I found a bargain in this lovely vintage sewing drawer. I hinted that I might lighten it, and today was the day! I used ASCP in Louis Blue, 1 coat I removed the drawer pull, and painted it white with acryllic paint. I had these two appliques which I also painted white, and glued to each side. I left the grooves on the front of the drawer dark for some dimension. I didn't distress it or add any wax to it, just one coat of paint. This bunch of roses came from Kirkland's several years ago. The large silky rosette is a piece of ribbon that I just gathered up to resemble a rose, add a doily, and there you have it. I used Tacky Glue to adhere the appliques. Very simple update for this drawer, but it made a huge difference. You will be seeing a lot of this little drawer. I love it and it was such a great bargain at only $7.99. ...
