The three pics are awesome. The walnut is a beautiful contrast. Seriously, thank you for this. I am stoked.
I will go with that and do each drawer in full. The border is the shelf product you find at home depot. Particle board with a cleanable veneer.
Below is a close up of a drawer. The staples tell me maybe not hand made? My finger. Just call me Pig Pen. Can't do gloves. Jacks with my "chee".
Below drawer is a pic of the thick black impervious vinyl my pal "found" who works at an industrial vinyl curtain company. (I never ask). It's folded and sitting on top of the 3.2 seats I snagged for my SC before the market went nuts.
I appreciate the natural look but not going to do it when NOW is the right time to spend a week and $32 tricking it out with the contrast.
I do have a wee bit of experience. Here is a tool chest I made in my woodworking phase.
