Apothecary Drawers

This one was inspired from a very famous IKEA hack, the original one here: http://thepaintedhive.net/2012/04/ikea-card-file-drawers-hack/

I searched eBay and Etsy that some fellows selling this kind of thing, but too damn expensive.

One day I went to shipping in Jusco Living Plaza, and found the similar drawers costed only HK$36, without a hesitation I grabbed two! So, I gonna make myself a vintage looking apothecary drawers. DIY time!
