| Before |
Before: There was some cardboard glued to the inside that I already ripped out then I had to take off all the left over glue. I left the outside in its original state and did a quick wipe down to the inside.
My husband found this guy at a garage sale this past summer for $2.00 and he loved it. He wanted to come up with a purpose for it but it ended up just sitting up against a wall in our living area because it was just never decided on. It wasn't until I was having a lot of difficulty locating bobbins and pins and anything else I needed that I had a light bulb moment looking at this old cabinet. I immediately got to work.

| The process |
I picked up this screen printed sample at a local goodwill for $0.69 and am glad I was able to find a use for it. The other beige fabric was from freecycle.
There was a bit of sewing involved, but I could have used iron on interfacing. I was in a sewing mood I guess. The screen printed fabric on the front and the beige fabric on the back. I didn't want the glue I used to stick it onto the cabinet to come through so that is why I thought some backing was necessary. Now I have a place to keep my spools of thread and notions so things are easier to find! The best part? This project was under $3!
