Got an old and worn-out looking dresser? Don’t throw it away – instead, give it a makeover!
Now if you can’t think of a good design perhaps this faux suitcase drawer idea would suit your taste. ;)
The more detailed the paintings are, the better. Faux suitcase drawers should look very realistic for it to look really nice. So if you are going to do this project, make sure to create texture to achieve the impression of a real fabric, leather or wooden suitcase. Don’t forget to apply some shadows, and highlights too!
If you’ve got extra money to spare, buy some vintage design hardware such as clasps and corner brackets as these will complete the look of your faux suitcase drawers!
Need inspiration? You can get plenty from our album below! :)
