You will need:
Unfinished pine chest of drawers
Oval paper doilies to fit drawer fronts
Spray stencil adhesive (not spray glue)
Narrow auto-detailing tape (available at hardware stores)
White satin-finish spray paint
Clear acrylic spray sealer
Fine sandpaper
Masking tape
Screwdriver
Rigid plastic strip (such as an old credit card)

Here's how:

1. Prepare chest and drawers. Remove drawers and knobs. Lightly sand and wipe drawers and chest. Using masking tape, tape off 2 cm of each drawer, wrapping tape around edge of drawer.

2. Affix doilies to drawers. Following manufacturer's directions, use spray stencil adhesive to adhere double layer of doilies to centre of each drawer.

3. Apply auto-detailing tape to drawers. Start in one corner of one drawer and run strips of tape diagonally across corner, spacing strips 25 mm apart (see above). When that corner is complete, move to next corner and run strips diagonally across corner. The strips bordering lace should meet at a point on centre with doily. Repeat for opposite side of drawer. Fill in corners with additional strips of tape, forming lattice pattern. Lightly run plastic card over tape to seal it to drawer. Repeat with remaining drawers.

4. Paint design. Apply 2 light coats of spray paint to taped drawers, letting paint dry 1 hour between coats. After final coat dries 1 hour, carefully remove tape and doilies. Let paint dry completely.

5. Finish all pieces. Apply 2 coats of clear acrylic sealer to drawers and chest. Reattach knobs.
