So fun from Vicki. Smaller drawers can be decorated inside and outside, then hung by their backs on the wall. They just look cute! Seriously, that’s their purpose. And it’s fantastic.

This is a great outdoor idea from Queen B and Me. Shift these drawers on their sides and add dirt and plants. It looks amazing!

How about using a drawer as an ottoman!? I think this is just the best idea ever. The little handle is so cute. Take the drawer cover, some other pieces of wood, nail them together and then add the pillow top for Becky‘s beautiful footstool!

So fun! Take everything out of there and use the empty woodwork for a cupboard! Add some corkboard to the side and your choice of material in the middle for the perfect storage unit or display case. From Curbly
