I have always loved this cabinet because of the beautiful carving on the drawers.
While downsizing, I found the perfect use for it!
While downsizing, I found the perfect use for it!
After removing the sewing machine, (which I turned into a lamp!), and removing the rest of the insides and the top, I spray painted all of the metal with gloss black. The wood was lightly sanded and, after watering it down a bit, I painted the entire cabinet with white chalk paint. I was. Able to use a bit of salvaged marble from another project, and had it professionally cut and trimmed to fit the faucet and sink I had purchased. It holds all of my makeup, soaps, etc. I found two 12 inch towel rods and installed them on each side for washcloths and face towels. And the foot treadle was put to good use to hold bath towels. I LOVE it'
Enjoyed the project?
Suggested materials:
- Black spray paint, white chalk paint, small towel bars. (Michaels, Lowes. Antique auction!)
