Best Idea For Reviving An Old Filing Cabinet

Best Idea For Reviving An Old Filing Cabinet

by Bonnie Leave a Comment

Source: littlehouseinthebigd.com

You’ve probably noticed that bulky, hulking grey and brown filing cabinets are a dime a dozen. That’s why I love the idea of upgrading them into bright and beautiful furniture pieces!

Wouldn’t you love to have a place to store all of your goodies? Papers, crafts, bills,  recipes, photographs… a filing cabinet is an organizational life-saver.

Once you start reviving worn thrift shop furniture you will see what is possible. What’s next? A chair, table, or nightstand? There are so many possibilities!

You can paint an old filing cabinet and give the doors a make over with bright craft paper. Chris and Samm over at Little House in the Big D share a full tutorial in the link for the photo above. Yes, this project takes some time. But don’t you think it’s worth it? Let me know in the comments section below!
