This little girl's room had quite a few bits of furniture from various eras so we kept our paintwork to an antique theme to help blend it all together.
The drawer handles:
To make the drawer handles a bit more interesting we drilled out 12 circles from thin wood we purchased at a craft store.
We could have bought cut-out shapes but nothing was the right size for us.
We used a circle cutter on the end of an electric drill which was magic! If you don't have a drill, you could use a coping saw. Another idea is to use old cork placemats, which are even easier to cut.
Once the circles have been cut you will need to sand the edges.
Give the circles a couple of undercoats and allow to dry.
We made a template of the pattern we wanted: a simple daisy traced from a hair tie.
We then placed the template over each circle and applied the main color.
