Dressing Up My Dresser

I used to have a plain white dresser and I really needed more color in my room. With a light blue and orange color scheme I knew I wanted to go with one of those colors. I will first start with several years ago when I got the dresser. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures from before I owned it, it was plain, ugly, unfinished wood. I painted it white with regular Behr Interior Eggshell Enamel from Home Depot.

Then after several years of boring, I decided to spice it up with some color. I am extremely unartistic when it comes to painting things, so painting was not the option for me. Instead I decided to Mod Podge my dresser. This idea would also work with scrapbook paper or tissue paper, but I decided to try something new and different. I Mod Podged fabric onto my dresser....

Things you'll need:
1. A Dresser
2. Mod Podge matte
3. Sponge brush
4. Screwdriver
5. Super Cute Fabric (I used a pretty thick orange and white fabric)

Steps to Mod Podge your dresser:

Step 1: Take everything out of your dresser, clothing, items, etc.
Step 2: Take the drawers out of the dresser, makes it easier to measure fabric.
Step 3: Take the handles or knobs out of the dresser drawer.
Step 4: Cut desired fabric into the shape of the front of your drawer (only the part seen when the drawer is closed) leaving a 1 inch margin around the edges.
Step 5: Using the sponge brush, paint the Mod Podge onto your dresser drawer. Do this step quickly and thoroughly because you need to stick the fabric to your drawer next.
Step 6: Place the fabric onto your dresser drawer and smooth out with your hands. Making sure the fabric is in any and all crevices.
Step 7: This step gets messy, so you might want to lay down a towel, newspaper, etc. Mod Podge over the fabric and make sure all corners are laying flat. Tuck the extra inch of fabric around the drawer and Mod Podge the corners very well. (Hint: You may have to hold it for a second while it dries a little in order to make it stick.)
Step 8: Let the drawer dry(20-30 minutes).
Step 9: Put handles back on, I used scissors to poke holes through to get the screws back in.
Step 10: Put the drawer back in its place and put back in items or clothing.

Mine turned out like this.

Looks like a painted dresser without the hassle of paint!!!!! Has a neat texture too!!!!!!
