Aqua Mini Apothecary Cabinet Update!

 I love things with lots of drawers.

Apothecary cabinets!

Lots of little places to put things!

I got this little mini apothecary at a yard sale for fifty cents in 2010.

  It was white, chipped and dirty.

 I didn't have the whole "pop of color" attitude back then,

so I painted it and a tall mini dresser I got for $1, black.

I painted it on with a paint brush...it was flat and boring paint.

But I added little brads, that I cut off the prongs to, and glued them on the knobs.

 And it sat on my black desk for a couple years that way.

Used daily.  Filled with nail clippers, chapstick, postage stamps and little things.

 Then this whole world of color and spray paint hit me!

But I put off updating these for another year or 2...

Finally,

I popped off these little brad pieces...which still look fabulous...

 And spray painted these little dressers Exotic Sea.

And they seem to be holding up just fine!  So yay!

I put a little e6000 glue on the brads and stuck them

 right back on the wooden knobs.

 Let them dry overnight...

And presto!

Perfect!

I just want a huge apothecary cabinet now...

seriously plotting.

 They have to be real drawers, no facades--or double drawers.

And I'd put a different knob on every single one.

I'm seriously wanting this now...I might just have to start

 drafting up plans to make one...
