The tidy up and declutter of my messy art studio continues! In today's episode, I did some makeovers of some really ugly storage boxes that I didn't want to throw out, but they were too hideous to be on display. I used some cheap solutions to upcycle my existing furniture, and now they look a lot better! Watch to see what I did to fix these up.
Items I bought from Kmart:
Bamboo Vertical 3 Drawers: www.kmart.com....
Adhesive Vinyl Roll, Coast Palm: www.kmart.com.... (these are on clearance so I don't know what stock will be like but there are other designs too).

Haha yes I was quite surprised at myself for not losing my temper with the vinyl! 😂 It was a lot easier than I expected, but quite time consuming so it took me a number of separate days to cover everything. I had to take breaks, lol.

That vintage tool chest is awesome. My studio is a mish-mash of new and old, and most of it is repurposed. Only my drawing table and office desk were purchased for the specific purposes. My drawing table was a gift from my hubby some years ago, and my desk was to replace this hand-me-down, GIANT desk and credenza that equaled in weight to a large elephant. Well, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much! I had to literally break it apart to get it out of the house (the movers put it there for me on the second floor). Man I hated that thing. Oh, another thing that is awesome are those vinyl rolls for $2 each! Those were quite pretty and I liked how your pieces turned out. Well done!

It's funny that I bought those 3 drawer bamboo units from Kmart too because I couldn't find those plastic ones you put your markers in. I bought 4 of the 2 drawer units and they hold pens, pencils and leads, 3 different sized half pans, all my different sized bulldog clips, business cards, tools and computer cables and flash drives/storage drives. Also with a spare drawer for later use. I also bought the wider, lower 2 drawer ones too, they can hold A4 sized stuff. I bought 3 of the 2 drawer units and they hold my watercolor tubes, gouache tubes, washi tapes, watercolor sticks and empty palettes, with one drawer spare for future expansion. I haven't decorated mine, I just put printed labels on the drawers so I can find things. I thought I might paint images of the drawer contents and stick that on the front instead of the labels eventually. I'm still waiting for hubby to build my shelf unit to put these all on. I'm hoping he might also make a paper storage shelf and a box for my big acrylic paint tubes sometime in the future.

@@zenlife1200 They're really handy little drawer units! They're also half the price of the ones in Officeworks, lol. I've never seen those marker drawer units again; we had another look in TKMaxx and they were all gone. A one-off find, it seems! Sounds like you've made great use of your units and painting on them is a great idea. 😊

@BeckyTregear
@BeckyTregear 3 месяца назад
Thank you! I'm still thinking the black shelves need something on the back to hide the flaws in the paint, but it's ok for now. For some reason in our neighbourhood, people frequently chuck out good pieces of furniture and other treasures. I find things on a regular basis, which is partly why my studio's so cluttered, lol! 😂

I’m in awe of your spray painting ability. I have a small cupboard about the same size as your shelves and I am on can three of spray paint. I am absolutely horrible at it. I love the idea of finding and up cycling furniture and stuff but i learned i dont have the patience for it. Or energy or focus. That small cupboard i mentioned, i started in may and am still maybe halfway done. I am better at shopping for the items needed to upgrade the stuff… just not the actual work.

With the hard rubbish, anything still in good shape, gets sold in the council's tip store I believe. It doesn't get destroyed or put into landfill. The money the store makes goes to the community. In saying all that, anything that's actually still in the pile by Monday's is usually trash anyway. All the good stuff is already taken. I literally have to do my hard rubbish today.
