NOTES:

Let dry completely between painting steps.

1. Remove the drawers from the dresser. (Label as you do so.)

2. Remove the hardware from the drawer fronts.

3. Sand the wooden surface to remove any blemishes.

4. Paint the wooden surfaces of the dresser using Everlasting. Let dry.

5. Print out images of your choice. (If you are using regular letter-sized paper, you will need the images spread over three pages.)

6. Apply a layer of Americana Matte Decou-Page to the drawer front. Lay the first portion of the image down (lined up with the edges of the drawer front) and rub out any bubbles or wrinkles.

7. Line up the next part of the image, cutting off most of the extra so they only overlap a little bit.

8. Using a high-grit sandpaper (120 or higher,) sand at the edge of the drawer front.

9. Gently peel back the sanded edge and you should get a clean, crisp edge.

10. Repeat until all five images are on the drawer fronts.
11. Apply another layer of Decou-Page onto each drawer front to seal the paper.
12. Set in the dresser to let them dry.

13. Once dry, apply Clear Crème Wax to all Everlasting areas of dresser.
14. Paint the hardware using Relic. Let dry.
