A quick step by step

1. Measure the inset of the cabinet door and cut half dowels to size.

2. Place all the dowels roughly on the door and start to mark out your pattern with a pencil.

3. Choose your color palette! Using a fine painter’s tape, tape over your lines and paint the center section first.

4. Once the first section is painted and dried, remove the tape. Re-tape over the now painted section, paying close attention, and paint the other two ends. Two coats again please!

5. Once dried, we can get to sticking. Start on the inside edge, and if you find that the dowels don’t fit exactly, you’ll need to sand down the edge on the last dowels to be fixed. You can use spray adhesive because it’s quick and you won’t want these dowels shifting around while they dry.

6. Once stuck, give the whole cabinet a once over with a clear, matte varnish.

7. Last but not least, add your Prettypegs legs and knobs. And voilá!
