Furniture Makeover

Renovation of an old verneer cabinet

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/furniture-makeover • Posted by Ama R.

I bought this piece of furniture on a garage sale. I like the general shape of the cabinet, it size, the sliding doors which kinda of look vintage. What I do not like at all: it's veneer and not wood, handles and moldings are weird and do not match with the style of the furniture, and there are many scratches and blows. So a lot of work to do to make it look nice!

  2. Small furniture makeover tutorial

    A little tip if you want to change the background of a piece of furniture. Cut a thin cardboard to the right size, cover it with the selected paper and then stick it on the cabinet with double sided tape. It is much easier to do and also to change thereafter.
