When we were in Jubail looking at the shops last Friday I found a brilliant shop... it was packed from floor to ceiling with tat!! You know, the awful plastic clocks made to resemble Mecca, shelves of everything India and China export in a major way... I love those shops, you never know what you are going to find... and I found this little set of drawers... it stands about 8" high by 6" wide and was untreated and really cheap!!
So here it is now... I quite like how it turned out! The papers are BG and I used Adirondale ink dabbers to get the colours on the wood.
I plan to paint my scrap room at home in pale pink and green when I get back so this will blend in nicely!
And its perfect for holding all my mini book closures.....
Ummm, yes, I have quite a few of them... I love them and when I actually find a place that sells them I buy quite a few to keep me going! ;)
