File Cabinet Upgrade

Got any hideous file cabinets? I sure do! Fixing this issue has been on my agenda all year, but naturally there were plenty of other things that took precedence. This week I just couldn't take it anymore! So with some gift wrap, contact paper, shipping tape, a screwdriver, and Dawn dish soap, I finally did a quickie upgrade of the worst one. There are about 79 more sophisticated ways to do this you could find on Pinterest, but for my mental health I needed to get this ugliness covered and covered fast. My apologies for the lack of a decent "Before" photo; I forgot to snap one before beginning, the one below I found from the photos I took last May during my initial viewing of my new classroom.

  

Ahhh, that's better! Now I just need to paint the outside and the handles, and it'll be quite the looker!

And you better believe that those ridiculous stencils will be dealt with this summer!
