How to Make a Map Shelf From a Repurposed Drawer
Today I'm repurposing this drawer from an old hutch.
As you scroll through this post please pay attention to the bold blue links for more Homeroad information and the products I used for this project.
The drawer just wasn't working on that piece so today I'm using it again in this easy project anyone can do.
I began by painting the shelf with Fusion Mineral Paint in Inglenook.
By the way... gorgeous color!
Then I used some old sailing chart maps I found at a garage sale.
These were a super great find, they remind me of the maps my father had back when we went sailing as a kid.
I cut the maps to fit inside the back of the drawer.
I used matte finish Decou-Page by DecoArt to decoupage the maps to the back of the drawers.
Decou-Page is easy to use and has a great look.
It comes in several different finishes and effects, I chose matte for this project.
I added "D" rings to the back of the drawer to hang as a shelf and I've got an easy DIY nautical map shelf of the waterways in our area.
