I spotted this idea on the ‘net today and I am positively in love. I have got to find myself a crappy old dresser so that I can do this! I know just the spot for it, too. Of course, it will have to be in my bedroom so that the kids don’t pull it down, but that’s okay.
Craftynest posted all about how to turn these old drawers from a kitchen remodel into a modular bookcase. How great is this? I’m constantly spying ratty old dresser drawers on the curb waiting for someone to rescue them. And now that I have this idea in mind, I’m going to be that rescue person!
There’s nothing like getting a new piece of furniture for pennies, not to mention keeping something out of the landfill, to put a smile on your face.

Is that just dresser drawers stacked up? That’s seriously cute. I want. Of course, knowing my kids … and the pets … and S/O … oh, hell, who am I kidding, I’m probably the clumsiest oaf in the whole house, LOL, things would definitely be toppling. I know a couple of people who would find this to be tres chic though, so I’ll pass it on.

I think those are actually old kitchen drawers, but dresser drawers would work just as well. (That’s what I’m hunting for, anyway.) I am going to put them in my bedroom, where the kids can’t knock them over. And hopefully, I can keep from knocking it over, too!
