We have finally started with Cheri’s actual bedroom, the rest is still a bit of a secret, but for today’s post, I am sharing a quick makeover I gave an old Storage Drawers Unit, using Duct Tape. This Storage Unit is part of the deal of updating her bedroom, just not IN the bedroom… trust me on this.
I have had this particular Unit for years in which I keep a lot of, mostly junk, but necessary papers, etc as well. It used to be hidden under my desk, but since I no longer have a craft room, the desk moved and there is no space for this, but I do need to keep it around.
All of this goes into one area and the recycled containers and the Storage Drawers are pulling everything together.
I kept the framework black as the shelves which are close to where I am putting this Storage Unit is black and one of the main colors in the room(s).
Again not much to tell, Duct Tape really does it all for you, but a few pointers :
1.) After I wrapped the Duct Tape all around the front, I used a craft knife and gently slit open where the handles are
2.) I then added small pieces of the alternate Duct Tape to the drawer handles to make them a little more visible
3.) Last but not least, working with a curve was child’s play with the Duct Tape as it is a little stretchy {and definitely not as finicky as craft paper, which I first wanted to use!}
