Procedure

Clean the drawer inside and out. Use the cleaning tools you have and apply oil wood cleaner if available. This is very important so that the adhesive will stick thoroughly.
Choose the best art paper or wallpaper you have. It would be better if you pick the one that is pleasing to your eyes. Thick paper should also be considered.
Measure the length and width of your drawer from the inside. To do this, use the L-square 90 degrees angle ruler.
Cut the art paper or wallpaper according to the measurement of the drawer. Also, you have to use the L-square 90 degrees angle ruler. This will give you the exact angle for your cover.
Attach the art paper or wallpaper into the drawer carefully. Don’t leave any space uncovered. Use double-sided mounting tape for stronger hold.

The drawer liner makeover project will definitely go a long way to preserve your drawer and the materials inside.
