Hey guys! So this week was interesting! I was suppose to upcycle a tire, but I could not find one to my liking so I will just have to keep looking! Instead, I moved forward and upcycled some dresser drawers. I first made a stand for them using 2x4s and then screwed the drawers on. I had to measure everything out properly in order for the drawers to be even. I used tools that I was already familiar with, so this was not too hard, other than the drawers were just cheap dresser drawers that we had laying around the house so the screw was hard to drill in. But with the right amount of force I got all of the screws in there! After I got done with this, I proceeded to paint the drawers. I was going to sand the 2x4s and stain them, but I could not find the wood stain at my house, so I’ll have to do that some other time! All in all, I’m pretty proud with how I did this week. I go into every project thinking that it will be easy, but there’s always some difficulty, and that’s what I like! I hope to either sell these in the spring time or donate them to the Miles City FFA chapter for our end of the year silent auction at our Banquet. Also excuse my messy house in the picture below! 😂
