I also love this file cabinet makeover, from House of Sarager. And check it out: we have the same greeting card filer - the orange thing on top of the cabinet. I bought mine at a yard sale (you can kind of see it in this post - its on my expidit bookcase). How weird is it that I see it on someone else's blog?

Anyway, the file cabinet in my office is pretty boring. I did buy a wood one, which I like better than the metal kind. But it seriously needs some sprucing up.
A pattern like this would look awesome:

But, for the time being I switched out the handles. I think that little change made it look a whole lot less 90s "modern office-y". I want to hold off on doing something bolder until I DIY the magnetic chalkboard I have planned. If I paint the frame a wild colour, I might leave this as-is. You might have guessed that change happens slowly around the townhouse . . .

| With new handles |
I am dying for a filing cabinet. I am currently using a big overstuffed, unorganized folder and need to move up. I can not wait to see what you decide to do with yours.
ReplyDeleteOoh, what a brilliant idea... My husband picked our's up for $30 (secondhand) years ago, before we were married and painted it black with silver drawers just to make it look semi-decent. But it's looking a bit scratched up now, maybe it's time to do the drawers up... Hmm... yet another thing to add to my ever-growing list!
ReplyDeleteLove the new handles. They really create a nice, sleek look. Excellent choice!
ReplyDeleteI just looked at the Wall Pops used on some of the file cabinets, and I'm hooked...and just after I made fun of my Con-Tact paper on the old Zenith "bar." Once addicted to sticky vinyl, always addicted, I guess.
