AW: Finished a big crafting/repurposing project.

thelamarrs

I usually don't feel the need to post my crafting expeditions on TK since everything I make is either in my blog or on my pinterest... but this project is something I've been wanting to do for a while and finished it today! 

May I present to you... my upcycled file cabinet! My completion blog post is on it's way to being written but I wanted to post the picture of it being completed here!

And for a size comparison...

It's pretty tall considering I'm 5'0''. 

It's taken me about two days to complete! 

Also, this a P&R since I have to do my run for today! I'll be back later on.

<div>Thanks! I'm doing a huge room redo and those are the colors my room are... the green is really an accent and the blues are the walls! I can't get enough of the blues and green (or a mixture of them! Teal and turquoise are so pretty!).</div><div>

That looks totally awesome, but more importantly... You're short! Wanna hang out? Make me feel all tall and special.

Thanks Danser!

And of course I want to hang out. I would be more than happy to make you feel tall. It's something I've become very good at in the last few years...

I'm a whole TWO INCHES taller than you. I'm going to feel like a giant! I can reach stuff up on the middle shelf for you and everything!

*Brushes shoulder off* Yeah, I'm kind of a big deal.

I love this!  I want to do this with the huge ugly filing cabinet we've had here for the past year.  I wanted to do it last year when I had a week off for Christmas, but I never got around to doing any home decor stuff.  Maybe I will this year.

How fun! I need to get a filing cabinet for my home office and that's such a fun idea!

lovelyheather

It looks amazing!  I wish I had a filing cabinet to upcycle!

thelamarrs

Thanks you guys! My office had one that they didn't want anymore so I volunteered to take it! It was a pretty easy project once I actually got started on it!
