We got kicked this “antique” kitchen cabinet thing from the inlaws that had been a friends “since the late ‘60s.” It has some kind of weird flour sifter thing which has been come to be kind of a cool drug stash spot over the years.

It was painted an ugly baby blue, so I used some orange paint stripper thing in our garage to strip all the paint, which was when I realized it was some kind of fake wood.

I bought some kind of weird two part spray paint “faux stain” kit and tackled the challenge.

I think it came out pretty good. Have had it now for @15 yrs and no plans to get rid of it. Refurnishing furniture is fun, even when its fake!

Also, I know the plant needs help, battling fungus gnats from bunk potting soil.

That looks awesome! I ran into some locals in my little big hick town lemont, IL and got some info from a woman who used to cut my hair as a kid(havent cut my hair in 4 years) She gave some awesome tips and I found out it's not laminate but actuall veneer
