Paint the Cabinet!!

Paul and I bought an ugly old filing cabinet at a Boy Scout yard sale that our ward did a while ago.  I've sort of been wanting a place to put all of my choir and piano music (and Paul's guitar music, too!) that isn't a purple bag or the floor or the overflowing piano bench.  This little thing was $5.00 so yeah, it really was a no-brainer.

We decided we would spray paint it.  Here is the before:

And the during:

And the after:

The first can of paint ran out, so we had to go back and get more for a second coat.  Oh, and I forgot to mention that we did a lot of sanding so that the paint would stay.  I'm pleased with the color choice and I think Paul did a great job and it was fun to have a painting project!  Okay, now I have to go buy some file folders!
