How to make a new credenza from an old dresser

I love it when I get submissions that also have a sense of humor. Here is what Kim, The Inadvertent Farmer wrote,

“I took an old dresser that my 2 year old broke (it is NOT a step ladder sweetie) and turned it into a new hip credenza for our office…groovy folders included!”

Talk about making a silk purse from a sow’s ear! I love this transformation that also includes the best looking organizers! Pop on over to her blog for the whole tutorial!

   Wow. I love these recycled projects! I am also into creating new things out of old materials and I think it is great that so many recycled crafts are being made!

   I make purses out of old magazine pages and used t-shirts. So, I think this is spectacular.

   How I love to see old pieces given new life. We specialize in reclaiming and refinishing old furniture. Its always fun to see how others save a damaged piece and create something useful and beautiful!
