from the land of Ikea, meet the sture. my little dutch boy bought it for me when we lived in brussels and i've left it natural all these years because it fit with my "eclectic" studio style. rubber stamps fit perfectly in those skinny little drawers, and stamp pads and other goodies are stored (stured?!) in the larger drawers.

and now that we're about t-h-r-e-e days from closing on our new house (woo hoo!!), i'm trading in my natural furniture for a pottery barn/anthropologie wanna-be style. some leftover creamy white paint from my armoire project did just the trick!

i used this product (found at hobby lobby) to create the words on the drawers. i had not actually tried this before, so i'm not sure that using it for this project...that required 18 different words...was the best place to start, as the adhesive on this is a little tricky to use. the directions are easy to follow, but the adhesive is very sticky! i'm really happy with the results, though, and i think that it will look great in my new studio...let the countdown begin!!
