Scene 1: Garage sale down the street. Found this cute cabinet for $40.00. Fell in love.
Scene 2: Clean this baby up. It is grimey. I TSP (tri sodium phosphate), then I sand--still yellow crud rolling off.
Scene 3: Finally, I deem it ready for paint. My choice: A Coca-Cola red! I distressed it, in keeping with it's old/folksy style.
Scene 4: It seemed too dark inside, so I took the old girl uptown. I added a stainless steel contact paper made by Duck (the tape people) in the backwalls to reflect some light, and added a cute shelf liner. A push light in the top, and we are in business!
LOVE this cabinet! I have not done as many projects that I've found on Pinterest as you have, but I hope to do a few soon. Nice redo!
