In the Finest Imaginary craft room there was a set of those wooden ikea table-top drawers, you know the ones. Over the years they’ve housed necklaces (until they graduated to the amazing wall drawer system), crafty bits, and all manner of randomness. My latest ‘spring clearout’ effort has seen me throw out, or list on my destash store, quite a lot of stuff that resided in them so the drawers were pretty empty.
I decided they’d be put to better use on my bedside, and thought they might be nice spruced up a bit!
I’ve got a whole host of acrylic paints that I use on Finest Imaginary jewellery, it’s decoart crafters acrylic, so decided to use them on the drawer fronts. I love the consistency of it – not as thick as most acrylic paints – and the fact that it gives a really good colour on just one coat.
(you can tell a lot about a person from what’s on their bedside!)
Adam’s super jealous and wants a set of his own now, maybe I’ll do those in a different style? I thought about masking off sections for chevrons and triangles. We’ll see!

, and I got them because the small boxes are removable and stackable with secure clip lids, so I can take them all to any markets I do.
