VICTORIAN WALLPAPER shabby chic dresser

 

Amy from Masion Decor announced I had won her wallpaper giveaway. You can read that post here.

 

I ended up ordering all 3 of these

Antique Floral Hearts Victorian Heirloom

Vintage Style Victorian Toile Floral Branch

Historical French Floral Birds Victorian

Ive been dabbling with them ever since but this is

 the first project to be finished.

This pretty vintage shabby chic white highboy

 

 

George bought me a paint sprayer at Canadian Tire

months ago but I couldnt use it till the weather was better.

WEATHERs GOTTEN BETTER!!

I first used a paint sprayer years ago but it wasnt my very own.

 

It certainly helps with time but I do enjoy brush

 painting, its my quiet time away from the world.

If you want to see how I line the drawers you can find that here.

FRENCH WALLPAPER masion decor wallpaper

 

Im always looking for new wallpapers for my furniture projects. 

When I saw Amy from Maison Decor had a wallpaper giveaway,

the first thing I thought of was her china cabinet that both Georgeand I adored.

 

and her laundry room ceiling she did in a faux tin wallpaper

 

 

both available from the the lovely ladies at

D. Marie Wallpaper Interiors.

Sure enough when she sent them a link to her blog to

 show off these projects finished with there wonderful wallpapers, they agreed to sponsor a giveaway on her blog

and that leads us to this point.

 

Still quite in shock ....?

I WON THE GIVEAWAY!

now my problem is to pick what I want

 

Here are just a few of the beautiful papers I chose from. 

Thank you again to:

Start with your drawer upside down.

 

 

Cut your paper long enough to cover the bottom and sides - Cut 1

 

 

Next fold the sides tight to the drawer sides - Fold 1 & 2

 

 

Turn your drawer over and lay your folded paper inside.

 

 

Decide how far up the front and back you want your paper and crease it - Fold 3 & 4

 

 

Remove the paper from the drawer and cut the 4 corners,

One straight cut to the front and back crease you just made. 

 

 

You can see below the cuts that make your corners - Cut 2,3,4,5

Note: The paper is curling showing you a triangle, it is just straight cuts.

Paper back in the drawer fold the 4 corner flaps down - Fold 5,6,7,8

Lift up the 2 side panels.
