@@theflippedpiece because apothecary drawers have a bunch of smaller drawers, so that's why they have so many handles. Making faux ones doesn't go with it too well tbh. It's pretty, and I do enjoy a lot of your videos. But this just needed a bit of editing, it's very busy.

This was water damaged, had broken legs that needed repaired, handles were cracked and needed removed and tons of chips and scratched down to the particleboard. I only upcycle and flip damaged pieces, I would never touch a perfectly good mcm piece.
