Clutter Craft: Upcycling Vintage Drawers into New Dressers Posted: 24 Dec 2010 08:00 AM PST [ Filed under Recycled or in the Furniture category ] A drawer without its slot sounds about as useless as a light without a bulb (or a lamp without a plug). At the same time, vintage drawers tell fascinating stories of styles gone by, from their outdated color schemes to handles and pulls no longer in production.

Some are custom made-to-order uniques while others can be partially replicated (at least in terms of shape and size), depending on available drawers. In some pieces, the old components dominate the scene. In other works, such as the wheeled side table in the image above, they act more like accents within a mostly-modern composition. In this case, the vintage element is not even apparent from behind.
