Before and After on the Craft Room Filing Cabinet

Sometimes the big projects yet to be tackled around the house seem much too daunting and so I conjure up some quick little ditty that takes no time at all and results in something pretty. The metal filing cabinet in my craft room was in dire need of a makeover. If it were an older cabinet with metal handles and the little frames that you slide some descriptor in, then it wouldn't be so bad. But mine is really '70s looking. With a little bit of scrap paper and some Mod Podge, I now have a cabinet that looks like it belongs in my craft room. Here is the BEFORE and AFTER.

    The scrap paper really made a difference, Dawn! You've given me an idea. My two cabinets are not so much 70's as they are boring - I think I need to jazz them up. Thanks!

    This is a wonderful idea! We have a small black one of these. It's not completely hideous looking, but it could certainly be better!
