Materials:

Steps:
- Prepare dresser by cleaning the surface, applying primer and then base-coat the inside and outside with latex paint in desired colors.
- Remove drawers and backing. Measure the inside of the dresser where the drawers came out and cut glass to fit.
- Stencil heavy paper or wallpaper liner with checkers, cut to size and apply to the inside back of the dresser (figure A) with a staple gun.
- Slip the shelves into place.
- Measure and cut the pre-primed molding to fit the opening edges of the outside frame and the front edges of the new shelves. Stencil as desired before cutting to size (figure B).
- Glue or nail molding into place (figure C). Be sure to attach pieces above the glass so the edges don't show.
