added by Bneato Professional Organizing to File Your Cabinet Under 'Repurposed'
Filing cabinets are often pedestrian and typically come in standard, nondescript colors. I can't remember the last time I saw one offer any pizzazz to a space. Alternatively, I'm kinda loving the idea of turning a humdrum file cabinet into an industrial cube. The person who did this one removed the paint, then sanded and coated with a clear lacquer. I'd place this new version in the kitchen to house large pots and pans, linens or serving ware.
