I've been wanting a nice way to store tea and coffee for ages and when I rediscovered these wooden chests of drawers at the bottom of a cupboard, I realised they'd be perfect for the job.

You Will Need (4 things)

  • A chest of mini Drawers from Ikea
  • Chalkboard Paint
  • Chalk Pen
  • Glass Bubble Beads

Steps (5 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Find an old chest with the right size of drawers for tea and coffee. We got these at Ikea years and years ago and they were starting to look a bit beaten up.

  2. 2

    Paint each drawer with a layer of chalkboard paint.

  3. 3

    Leave to dry and then add bubble beads to each drawer if you like.

    Bubble beads were one of the first projects I ever posted on CO+K - http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/bubble_beads_2

  4. 4

    Fill each drawer with bags of tea and coffee, labeling with a chalk pen as you go.

  5. 5

    All done!
