Laundry cabinet upcycle

Picked up this cute cabinet locally off marketplace. I gave it a light sand and a good clean with sugar soap wipes. Took it apart and gave one coat of taubmans 3in1 primer and two coats of taubmans shindig in semigloss. Added some new and some recycled hardware, took out the mirror panel at the back of the cabinet and wrapped in some koala fabric and placed back into the cabinet

Re: Laundry cabinet upcycle

I absolutely love it, @sallie24! What a brilliant way to breathe new life into an outdated piece of furniture. 

 

The colour you've chosen is lovely. I'm adding shindig next to duck egg blue in my list of favs. The new handles and koala fabric are nice touches too.

 

Many thanks for sharing, and I can't wait to see what project you tackle next.

That koala fabric 😍

 

Awesome stuff @sallie24 , the new handles contrast well with shindig. We have a few items like this in our home that we're wanting to renovate in the future, did you hand sand or use a machine?

I used the sanding blocks medium and fine for this one and hand sanded all of it ☺️
