Dresser finished

I had previously solicited opinions about the best configuration of these inexpensive unfinished mini chests of drawers.
Ta da!
I stained the two wider ones brown, painted the drawer pulls, and lined the drawers. Stacked one on top of the other and found some trim to hide the upper chest's feet.
Despite sanding the units before staining them, the stain did not take evenly. I believe there was some stray glue or something left from the manufacturing process. The deco trim between the two units is a piece of 3/4" wide deco wood trim from the craft store. The cardstock lining the drawers is also from the craft store.
The two unfinished units on the left are probably going to become part of a dressing table. I'm not sure yet.
