Faux Bone Inlay

I have always been drawn to furniture with

bone inlay

 

and so I finally decided to do a piece with a nod to that technique.

 

First I edged the drawers in light grey and then started with my interior lines.

(sorry about the flash it was late and there was no natural light)

 

 

Now onto the pattern. 

There are tons to pick from. 

 

 Lots of leaf and flower motifs.

I went with a heart leaf and flower one.

 

 

Finally broke down and bought some

Frog Tape

 

 

It did really give a nice line with way less bleeding.

 

 

 

 

 I was tempted to paint the whole thing like the

bone inlay furniture

 that has it all over,but decided to just give a little accent to the drawers.

 

I coated the whole thing in a poly acrylic for durability and a little shine.

 

 

I do love how it gave some life to these plain flat drawers.
