Filing Cabinet Revamp

September 24, 2013 By stylishrevamp 7 Comments

We have decided to carve out some space to make a home office for me and my youngest (the one that helps me with this blog).  My husband is giving up some of his space in the man cave.  Once I get more of the space complete, I will share it with you.

So after he agreed to give up some space in the basement for our home office, I knew I wanted to revamp his old filing cabinet. He has had this filing cabinet for a long, long time.  Every time we clean out the garage he says we can get rid of it but we never do. Now I am going to use it in my new space.

Spray Painted Filing Cabinet

I used all my leftover primer and spray paint from previous projects.  I did the base of the cabinet and the drawers in two different shades of gray.  Once that dried, I added the stencil numbers and stripes in white.

This is the Before

I think it will look great in our new space.  I can’t wait to get the office finished and put it to good use.  Here is another photo of the filing cabinet. I think she is looking pretty good considering she has been sitting in one garage or another for over 20 years!
