Ten Dollar Vintage Stereo Re-do

What does $10 buy you these days? Lunch, a few trips to Starbucks, a few gallons of gas, some fresh flowers, a few items on your grocery list?

Or maybe this....a vinatge stereo I found at Savers for 10 bucks. I couldn't believe this beautiful & well built piece of furniture was cheaper than my last lunch date(with my little guy) at Panera. I was sold, it was sold & I took it home.

It took some elbow grease & paint but I think she is a beauty. This ugly duckling has been transformed and it only cost me $10:).

Love this idea! I've seen so many old stereo cabinets and wondered what you could do with them.
