The Secret to Lining Your Drawers the Cheap Way

It’s spring break for me this week and I have had all kinds of fun doing little projects around the house. Today I wanted to share one of those projects with you… the secret to lining dresser drawers the cheap way!

This idea was inspired by a friend of mine over on Instagram (Abbey @paintedhomegoods ). She posted her freshly painted dresser lined with none other than wrapping paper! I instantly thought this was genius! I’ve always loved the look of lined drawers but knew that the paper can get expensive. (Especially the kind I usually like! 😉 ) When I asked her about it she said she usually finds the best wrapping paper at Home Goods, TJ Maxx or Marshalls! Luckily I shop at those stores all the time! Then she said the secret to keeping the paper down was by using spray adhesive! Genius!

So I attempted it on my recently painted MMS boxwood green dresser (see all the details here)and BAM! Instant magic! So easy, right?!This is a quick, easy and inexpensive DIY that anyone can do! Here is what you will need!

Supplies

*Spray Adhesive                     *Wrapping Paper            *Drawers to Line

 

The Steps

  1. Kelly, that paper is so perfect for this piece! What a lovely addition to a beautiful piece!

  4. Oh my! A wonderful idea. I buy all my wrapping paper at HG. I am going to give this a try. Thank you so much.

  5. This dresser was already gorgeous, but the addition of that paper has elevated it to amazing! I love this idea and can’t wait to try this on a few pieces of my own at home! Thanks for the inspiration, my friend!

  7. Your drawers are beautiful now, Kelly! That wrapping paper is gorgeous!

  8. Such a beautiful dresser and the paper is the perfect finishing touch, Kelly! I never heard of the spray adhesive but so glad to read about it! I’m redoing a dresser right now and the drawers need help and this is the best idea! So fun to be on this blog hop with you!

  10. I always watch for old rolls of wall paper at the thrift store to use in drawers as liners. I have found some beautiful blue and white striped and other small print wallpapers for like $1.00-$2.00. That also works really good in the drawers and it is thicker. Just wanted to share that so you could watch out for some.
