Fixed up some damaged drawers

These drawers were originally a gift from a previous landlord, and followed me from Las Vegas, to Columbus, to Houston. The last leg of the journey was a little rough on them. I considered merely sanding it and painting over the ripped laminate. Before I could do that, I saw the old LPs at Goodwill and had an idea. I'm not usually crafty like this but it turned out really well.

Very nice! Did you decoupage the covers on to the laminate?

Yes, after separating the covers into the fronts and backs and trimming them a bit. Spray adhesive was key.
