Driving around during brush pick-up has to be (at times) the most rewarding time for a furniture repurpose self proclaimed "fanatic".
A couple of weeks ago I came across this beautiful vintage 3 in 1 console. I thought I would hallow it out & repurpose it as a storage center or something along those lines.
After an embarrassing attempt to load it by myself into me SUV, I ended up using a skateboard to help me push it into my garage. (Sorry, no documentation of that)
It took me a few good hours to clean, sand, sanitize & gut this baby.
I picked this beautiful pastel purple shade from Krylon (about three cans to be exact).I usually always use this brand when repurposing furniture. It has amazing coverage & sits really well.
After painting my boyfriend helped me clean out the inside and remove the torn speakers. I replaced them with $3 fabric from Joanns.
After the paint dried & we put the console back together, we hauled it inside (skateboard not included) to test it out. It has AM/FM radio, an A-Track player & a record player. To our surprise EVERYTHING worked.
And this was our final finished product.
