filing cabinet makeover

again, next time i'll take before and after pics. this is an old filing cabinet i found at the thrift store for $8. we had planned to put it in our coat closet to do some badly-needed organizing of the important papers, however after the makeover, it was too cute to hide in a closet. i sanded and spray primed. then i spray painted the whole thing white. i added the stencil when the three coats of spray paint were dry. i found the stencil at joann's craft store. this craft: easy, easy and easy.

i finished spray painting the doors of our furniture. I should have listened to your dad so long ago. PS find me a cute filing cabinet like that one. I can check it as luggage.

well... this bout of spray painting was easy. sometimes it's not so easy. :)

and i'll see what i can do about finding another one. i'll have to frequent Berry Good Buys a little more often! i don't mind.
