Campaign Style Rast Hack

I never get sick of seeing all these different ways to hack the IKEA Rast dresser! Molly from Molly Madfis Designs emailed me her latest project and I think it turned out really great.


Molly said she searched and searched for a campaign piece to put in her dining room, but coldn't find the right one in the right size. She was inspired by all the Rast hacks floating around the internet and thought she could make her own campaign dresser.


Molly patched up the old knobs holes, painted the dresser and drilled on these flat corner plaques. Then she measured and drilled new holes in the center of each drawer for these brass campaign style pulls from Ansaldi and Sons.


I actually prefer the proportions of Molly's hardware to traditional campaign pieces. The smaller corner plaques look perfect here. And wouldn't a pair of these would look so great as night stands?

Thanks for sharing, Molly!
