A “Mauve-lous” Office Cabinet Makeover

Happy New Year's Day my friends! I’m welcoming Jan the same means I do every year: past times starting some other diet, vowing to do more, as well as organizing my home. Three goals, thus hopefully at to the lowest degree i of them happens! And I’m starting off on the correct organizing foot, past times sharing a slice I made for the office. I can’t hold off for y'all to come across the slice of furniture slice that I transformed!

Ta-da! Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 bulky, dusty, quondam laminate TV stand upward that I picked upward for $10.  If y'all are looking at this slice as well as seeing goose egg inspiration, y'all are non alone! I’ve seen thus many laminate pieces similar this discarded on curbs as well as inward garage sales, but at that spot is SO much potential here.

These separators were likely for tape storage dorsum inward the 24-hour interval (Yep! That’s how quondam this slice is!), but I come across file folders as well as organization!

We got started past times ripping off the gross boxed inward frame on the bottom amongst a hammer – nosotros bought construct novel feet to position on the bottom later on it’s painted :)

Next, my hubby got rid of the lip simply about the exterior of the slice past times running the router along the border of the cabinet amongst a even out trim down bit. Sorry nigh the painting – it’s a dusty job!

When Beauti-Tone announced their coloring of the year, “You Look Mauve-lous“, I knew that this would live on the perfect coloring for my role piece!

I didn’t desire the slice to live on overly feminine, thus I wrapped the cabinet amongst woods on the transcend as well as both sides. We primed our piece, as well as then painted it amongst my beautiful novel Mauve earlier adding the wood.

To do this, nosotros measured the width at the transcend as well as divided it past times 5 (which worked best for our piece), thus nosotros knew what width to cutting each 1×6 board evenly to. To cutting the boards to length, add together 3/4″ for each of the 45 marker angles (so add together 1 1/2″ to the transcend boards) on the long side. [Note: 1×6 boards are genuinely 3/4″ thick, which is why that publish is added]. We cutting the 45 marker angles on the ends using a mitre saw.

Finally, nosotros stained the woods inward a beautiful grayness stain, as well as and then glued the woods pieces inward identify amongst woods glue, as well as screwed them from the back. We work PL Premium glue because it sticks very well.

Our terminal stair was to add together new hardware, new hinges, as well as new feet to the cabinet. I couldn’t live on happier amongst how this slice turned out!

What do y'all intend of the transformation?! Would y'all bring picked upward a slice of furniture slice similar that one?

I late finished my Master Bedroom Closet – live on certain to cheque out how I used my “You Look Mauve-lous” paint inward that infinite too!
