Reloved Drawer Thingy!

I bought this in TK Max ages & ages ago because I really loved it and loved the price tag.
 
 
I brought it home and after disappointingly trying it in every room in the house, I conceded it that even though I loved it, the house didn't!
 
 This however was pre my Annie Sloan campaign!!
 
 
I gave it two coats of Original, 'a warm slightly creamy off white'....
 
 
...and distressed it quite a bit along the edges and to show off the lovely carved detail.
 
 
I decoupaged the insets of the little drawers with some Laura Ashley wallpaper I bought for about €6, eau de nil of course.
 
 
Now I've uttered the three magic little French words you know it's going to work don't you!
 
 
 
 The whole thing got a couple of coats of wax and suddenly, the dining room said she'd gladly have the new and improved drawer thingy...
