Learn this much faster way to line a draw with decorative paper. No measuring tape needed! In My Own Style


Sometimes the best thing about making over a piece of furniture is in the details. Like the addition of the sweet little tassel I added to my bedroom dresser I just posted about. But also in other ways like the addition of decorative paper to line the drawers.  It is not needed, but it sure gives your eyes a treat every time you open a drawer seeing a pop of color and a pretty design.
I use gift wrap mostly when lining drawers, but wallpaper works well too, as do book pages, maps, and other large pieces of paper.  Home Goods is my #1 source for finding pretty rolls of gift wrap at bargain prices. I have 2 stashes of it in my house since I can’t fit everything into one location :-)
Lining a drawer with paper is not hard, but I know of a super easy way that doesn’t even require the use of a measuring tape.

(Totally worth the wait…)
