When I say painted drawers, I don’t mean painted on the exterior – I mean painted on the interior! I guess I should have elaborated in the title, but it doesn’t really have a nice ring to it!

Anyway, today I’m looking at two different styles of painted drawers – on the inside of the actual drawer and on the exterior of the actual drawer – not the front or drawer panel. Does that make sense? The photos above may help to make it more clear.

In the top left and bottom right photos, you can see the exterior of the actual drawers are painted, while in the top right and bottom left photos, the interior of the drawers are painted. Both ways offer a whimsical surprise that will make anyone who opens the drawer smile.

What do you think – do you love this look? Where in your home would you implement the look of painted drawers??

Reminder is the name of a dresser designed by Kazuaki Hibino that attempts to address the problems of memory. Sometimes finding the things we need in drawers can be problematic, even when we think we know what is in each drawer. This unit has specially-shaped drawers that play a memory game of sorts… the shapes define the content of the drawers and you make an association of that shape with its contents.

Excerpt from:
Reminder by Kazuaki Hibino

Materials: Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, Drill, Knobs, Furniture Wax Description: I took a dark brown Malm 6 drawer dresser from modern and plain to full of character and charm. I started by making a template of the drawer front out of some craft paper and marking where I wanted the holes. I went with 5 1/2 inches from each end. After drilling all of the holes I painted the whole dresser and all of the drawers with some Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in the color Napoleonic Blue.
