I didn't know how I was going to make-over this piece until I found beautiful Vintage-Looking Paper at the local hobby store. It has a wonderful aged appearance with browned distressed edges along with fading & yellowing that comes with age.  I loved the pretty floral scroll design of the paper as well.

Three separate pieces across each drawer front added much character & the illusion of more little drawers.  I carefully glued each in place and pressed out any bubbling.  After completely dry I added a layer of varnish to protect the paper and seal down the edges.

This beauty was completely cleaned up & needed paint inside & out for a thorough makeover. Drawers were painted on all sides including underneath & back.
The "Love" stenciling was appropriate on the inside drawers of this piece because it needed alot of it for it's restoration. 

The soft pink paint was gently distressed & sealed with a tinted French Wax to collect in the crackles to further highlight it's age and protect its wonderful French Finish.

6 wonderful knobs adorn this Vintage beauty. 
They have a Hazey-Aged Glass look & are a perfect addition since it did not come with any hardware at all!
