Drab To Fab Dresser
How to turn an old, tired looking dresser from a Drab to Fab Dresser ! Simply by using paint, spraypaint and some leftover wall paper !
In my post about my daughter’s Tall Mirror , I mentioned that you will definitely see this wallpaper again.
We turned her old dresser into a ” Drab to Fab Dresser ” using the same wallpaper, some paint and black spray paint.
After the Tall Mirror, I have also used the wallpaper on her doors in the new Entrance to her bedroom.
Thereafter I did not have much left (hence the patterns not lining up), but also did not want to let it go to waste.
The above photo shows a tired looking 90’s dresser with handles starting to come loose.
Other than that, the dresser was still strong and who can do without all that storage space, anyway!
This close-up shows the light grey which I have used to paint the dresser, and the wallpaper, perfectly.
Drab To Fab Dresser
Couple coats of light grey paint, leftover wallpaper (it is now finished!) and a quick black spray paint on the handles and we have a totally different look which will blend in with the rest of her room.

The pattern on this is wonderful. I would never have thought to do something like this but now I totally want to go change all of my drawers.

Love this idea and that pattern, looks great! Going to try this with my kid's dresser, thanks. 🙂
Great idea using the wall paper to add some great detail and texture. MUCH better than the old gold-and-white 90's styling! Stopping by from artsy corner thursday 🙂
What a great dresser! Love the darker color handles on there – it really sets it together with the wallpaper. Stopping by from Whatever Goes Wednesday link up. -Kimberlee
