My $4.00 yard sale find has finally been painted. I'm really looking forward to having it in the bathroom. DH promises that he will hang it this week.

After:
I also painted this shelf from Home Interiors. It was brown, but I thought it would work better being white. I'm also going to have dh hang it in the bathroom.
Yeah -- I'm finally able to comment on your site. I love that little $4. cabinet -- I never find anything that nice for that price at garage sales around here!! Can't wait to see it hung.
I've never been one to cover the beauty of wood with paint. That said, your cupboard looks so much better painted white. Maybe I'm starting to convert? Oh say it ain't so...
Your cabinet and shelf are wonderful in white! Can't wait to see where you put them and what you do with them. They will be great to have up. I have several shelves to paint soon. The old brown finish isn't what I need anymore and there's better use for them than just sitting in a box in the garage. ~Adrienne~
I love white furniture, and especially in the bathroom. Your yard sale cabinet looks really pretty, especially now you have painted it, and you have made such a saving, a little more than $4.00 if buying new! Louise x
I can't wait to see this cupboard hanging and filled with your wonderful goodies! Was the shelf a bargain too? I am off to hunt for some items tonight for our half bath. Not easy to do here in Holland. The only place open in the eveing is IKEA so we will go over to look. Do you already know what you want to put in the cupboard?
What a lovely little cupboard - It looks wonderful painted white. My daughter paints almost everything she finds at garage sales/second hand shops etc - white & it's amazing how it instantly changes the look.
Kim, your cabinet is stunning. It's such a great piece, and for only $4 - amazing. I think it will look great in the bathroom. I can just see the vintage bottles and decorative items you'll be able to place in it. Can't wait to see it once it's up. Your other shelf looks good too. I've got some like that which I need to paint as well. You're inspiring me.

I love the way a coat of paint can instantly update an item. Nice find for $4.00. Can't wait to see you fill it up.
ReplyDeleteThe white looks so much better! It looks brand new. It will be wonderful in your bathroom.
