Chippy Drawers and Daydreams!





Aren't these old chippy drawers wonderful?!?!?! I found them at a yard sale last year and didn't have a clue what I would do with them, but I do now. I sit and daydream about them sometimes and what to do with my "stash" of stuff. I have lots of daydreams. So many in fact that it's hard to keep the body up with the thoughts/dreams about "what can I do with this or that? But I'm going to paint them a bit and shabby them up. Then I'm going to do a collage. Maybe I'll use fabric, vintage ephemera, roses and maybe a ballerina in there. I haven't thought on it yet. But it will be lovely I think!

  2. Those are great Connie !! Love the light one with the sections. They would be great storage, or as you said, shadow boxes. :)
