A Redefined Cabinet

Cabinet as it left the garage.
This cabinet came from the garage. My husband determined that he needed new space so he moved this cabinet from the garage straight out of the patio garage door to rest here in its spot on the back patio. I was excited to acquire this unwanted "space taker" from the garage. Made some changes to it with a few coats of paint and added some doors made from fence pickets to cover the big empty holes in the front. It stores potting mix and extra pots, the garden hand tools, fertilizer sprayer, the chick feeder and waterer and other small items that need a spot. I have all ready used the cabinet for potting a few plants and it has come in handy as a side board for serving meals and drinks. I love it when an item becomes such a handy piece. 

Cabinet from the garage redefined.
