mobile craft table

So it's not secret that in military housing you sometimes  have to get creative with space.  Since I've had my cricut now OVER a year, and I'm literally on it practically every day, it's been camped out in our dining room where I can craft and see the kids in the living room playing and watching tv.  Well till about a month ago it's been an eye sore, as it's been just a plain grey plastic 4 ft table, with tubs underneath it and in that green hutch you see used to hold all my paper and other machines.  I work for MWR and we have a property sale about every three months - which simply means property that company doesn't need anymore and they are selling it at TERRIFIC prices.  Now that I have a table on wheels I'm able to roll it into the laundry room and close the door.  Here is what it looks like when we are having a party....

 ....and here is my table in all it's glory!  Isn't it great?

 You can tell I spray painted it (and you all know if you can't spray paint it it's not worth having) and left the inside because I don't care what the inside looks like because I'm the only one that has to look at it.  I got this peice for $20!!!!!!  It even has a table that extends out that i probably won't ever use but I've got it if i need it.  Now the green hutch can hold appliances that I don't use all the time but surely don't want to get rid of!



Revamping your bread box!

This is my bread box before....I cleaned it up, sanded it, and primed it.

 This is what it looked like after i painted it.  I choose to paint the door black because the paper I am putting on the slats is black.

 Mark the paper where the slats are - be sure to number the backs of the slips so they go back on in order.

 Use modge podge to adhere the paper to the slats.

 I found it was easier if I had the door up where there was more space between the slats I kept moving the door down a little for each new slat.

 When you finish with all the slats, put the protective coating of modge podge over the paper.

 Here it is holding my bread.  The bottom handle of the door isn't complete, it was getting too late in the night to finish that.  But it will just be repainted black to get rid of the little bit of red that was sprayed on it!

 Isn't it cute how it matches the other things in my kitchen!
