Unused drawers project

You know the feeling when you do a project (my Ikea recycle/trash cart), 

and you are left with things that you don't want to throw away 

(drawers)?

Well, maybe I am just one of those people...

So here I was left with 3 unused drawers.

I also had eight little plastic 

wheels, the one that come with those plastic stackable drawers. 

I knew those little wheels would come handy some day.

The drawers were already white, 

and all I had to do was to drill four holes on the bottom of each drawer.

Useful tip: start with a drill bit that is small, and gradually change it to a bigger one, and finally use the correct drill bit size for the hole you need. 

This will prevent the wood from cracking.

Moving on,

after you are done drilling the holes, 

insert the wheels at the bottom 

and you are done.

Now remember the twin bed frames that I made out of a futon frame?

I placed one drawer under each bed 

(at the foot of the bed).

The left picture shows you what it looks like once the bed cover is on.

I told the girls that it is their special drawer, and they can put their special things in it.

They think it's super cool.

This project cost me nothing,

and it's a perfect to add hidden storage space.

Stay Frugal,

Daniela
