Yield: 1 Jewelry Armoire
Materials
Instructions
- Before the video started, I painted the box with a coat of Fusion’s Raw Silk.
- Remove your handles from the drawers. On this particular box, they just popped out with help from a screwdriver.
- Lay out your decoupage paper/tissue paper approximately where you want it to go then cut your paper to fit your drawers.
- Apply a coat of mod podge on the surface of your drawers.
- Lay your paper over the mod podged surface and rub down everywhere.
- Take a razor blade and cut in between your drawers.
- Then, cut off all excess paper from the drawers.
- Apply another coat of mod podge on top of each drawer.
- To add a little extra ‘cuteness’, I added the same decoupage paper to the inside of the drawers! Using a tape measure/ruler, measure the inside of your drawers.
- Then take those measurements and mark on your paper where to cut. Make sure to use a straight edge when cutting!
- If the paper is big, take a razor blade and cut the excess off for it to fit snuggly in your drawer.
- Continue steps 10-12 for each drawer.
- Mod Podge the bottom of the drawer and set the paper down in the bottom. Make sure all corners are adhered. Apply top coat of mod podge. Continue this step for each drawer.
- Using your sanding block, sand the edges off.
- Add your drawer handles back on.
- Grab some of Fusion’s Chocolate Mineral Paint and dry brush over the handles and over the entire project.
