Here's the latest golden egg yard sale find! I needed a craft/school cabinet, but didn't want to spend much. I found this horribly dilapidated cabinet at a yard sale. The "bones" were good and I loved the lip that runs around the top- perfect for containing papers and projects! I decided to give it a shot.

Here's the prize! Scratched, gouged, and let's not overlook the Sharpie graffiti! |

The top, with some weird mix of glue and asbestos flooring. |

The finished product: white paint, new handles, and plenty of elbow grease.
Cost: $30 (cabinet, handles and paint) |
