When I first started collecting antiques in my 20’s, I always loved looking in the drawers to find newspapers lining them as well as wonderful wallpapers of the time. It was like stepping back int another era. Who used this piece of furniture, what were things like for them?
I have always enjoyed having scented papers and sachets in my drawers to give a nice fragrance to clothes. When I started manufacturing my own furniture, I decided that we would always hand-line the drawers of our pieces. This has become one of our signatures that I am very proud of.
You can also line drawers on your existing furniture. Simple wallpaper and wallpaper paste is all you need. Scented drawer paper is also a nice touch- just cut to size and lay in the drawer.
