The Record Player Cabinet


I found this awesome old record player cabinet! I purchased it for $40! What a great deal for this amazing piece! Not only was it a great price but it works too! I totally scored on this one!

I had anxiety until the moment we picked it up! I just thought it was too good to be true. . . But I was wrong, and I was lucky! So I bought my paint (which was on sale $2.50 a can). I decided it must be white! 

Before:
First, I cleaned it like crazy!! Inside and out! 


I decided to go with a gold outlining color. It took me about 2 hours to get the gold detail completed. But I think it was a good choice. I already had the gold paint and I decided to keep the nobs and handles it came with. Just needed just TLC.

During Rehab:


And last, the Speakers!
I added navy blue fabric that I bought on sale for $3! This part was tricky, because I had to take out the speakers without cutting the wires. I took my time and I pretty happy with the outcome. 






The Cabinet Piece $40 + supplies $5.50 
= Right under budget!
