Living in Utah, the land of the big families, yard sales are knee deep in discarded toys. When I saw this wood play stove I just had to have it. Fortunately it met me five dollar price point too.
I already took the doors off in this before picture (sorry) but as you can see, it had seen a lot of hard use.
After sanding it I Mod Podged some of my kitchen fabric to the doors, painted the hardware brushed nickel (it was dark brass) added new nobs and painted the whole thing turquoise.
Now I have a cute little storage piece for remotes, DVDs, coasters, kleenex - all the stuff that accumulates in the living room.
P.S. I'm going to add some legs to it as soon as I find something I love.

What a nifty nook, Nicole! Don't you just love alliteration...LOL!! This turned out great and I never would have guessed that it used be a child's play stove. So cool!
Looks fabulous.. Awesome!
What a fantastic find - and you've turned it into such a stunning (and useful!) piece of furniture.. inspirational, Nicole!!
Oh great! love this project Nicole.
I just rescue a dining table and chairs from the garbage of my building, re-vamped and painted them with a similar color but, i did not take pictures buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Well done, super cool Nicole

This is so cute! I love it. If we had more room, I'd start thrifting for my own to re-do :)
