The Ugliest Little Thing - Transformed!

This is what I found during the same month that I found the sewing cabinet.

I don't have to tell you how thrilled Prince Charming was

to add another peice of ugly furniture to our garage ☺

I found it at a garage sale that I'd initially taken Kurt to because of the HUGE amount

of tools that were offered. He didn't buy any...but I spied this, the the VERY BACK

of the dark, dusty, overcrowded storage unit.

In the middle of downtown Ogden.

I would have been afraid for my life if I didn't have my Man with me.

When I asked the scary looking guy how much he wanted for it he said $10.00

I offered $8.00 (I know, but it's how the game is played) and he said OK.

$8.00 + Elbow Grease + One peice of glass for the front ($6.00) +

One roll of wrapping paper from

Tai Pan Trading Co.($4.00) =

A pretty darn cute place to show off my cookbook collection and my homemade Jam :)

   BEFORE

AFTER

It's not an amazingly high quality piece of furniture, but it has charm and it was a good deal.

Prince Charming cut two new shelves and I wrapped them with wrapping paper that I found at Tai Pan Trading Co. for a deal. I primed with aquaphor Gripper which is a primer that sticks to anything and makes sanding unnecessary, then topped it with two coats of Behr's Ultra Pure White High Gloss latex paint.

THE END!
