Spray painting GUN?!!! I'm in loooove!
Repurposed File Cabinet to Mud Room Bench!
I have to say this is one of my favorite DIY projects I have ever done!!! I looooove the way this turned out. I got that filing cabinet FREE from freecycle and I didn't really know what I was going to do with it.
That happens a lot... I'm a little bit of a hoarder but with purpose??? I'm sure "they all say that" Anyway this was so worthwhile!
As you can see it had all the hardware in it even file folders! So I took those out and put them in my "garage sale pile" :)
This is what I had left to work with :/ I sanded my little heart out and then since I didn't have matching stain I decided to paint the weird sides with this paint...
I Loooove it! Isn't it amazing? and since I already have a bench with this purpose I had my new awesome friend and neighbor in mind when I made it! I gave it to her beautiful family as a house warming present!

Then I cut out some beautiful vinyl with my circut that happen to match this awesome fabric I bought months ago. |
See how nicely the match! |
