    I am finally getting ready to make over 2 file cabinets. One is for myself and on for my dad. He us in an assisted living facility and wanted a file cabinet. I instantly knew what I was going to do for him. I want it to look more like a piece of furniture and this is surely the way to do it. Thank you for such a great tutorial!!

    Absolutely stunning and the Grey Stain with that Tiffany Blue! Stunning simply stunning! I also love any woman that uses power tools! I can’t believe those are “Paint Stir Stick”! I’m assuming you left the trim off the back so you could place your cabinet flush against the wall. Good thinking! ♥️👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    • @SheSoCraftDee
      @SheSoCraftDee  4 года назад +1

      That is correct. The back has no trim so it ca be flush to the wall: So glad that you liked it! :)

    I feel like I should have used a roller rather than a brush to apply the paint. So streaky! I’m going to sand and redo. Would you suggest Foam or nap? Thank you

    • @SheSoCraftDee
      @SheSoCraftDee  2 года назад

      It depends on what kind paint you are using. If it is self leveling, I go for foam. Now that I have a cheap paint sprayer, I use that for everything!

    @greyspot00 4 года назад

    Really cute, but how durable is this? I imagine the top is a little uneven and God help you if you spill anything on it as it's going to get all in the gaps.
    How was this thing to move? I'd be afraid to move it around with everything being held on with glue, and the cabinet itself being so heavy.
