I'm a WINNER (second place)

Remember that crazy cabinet I cleaned up for my bedroom?
I entered it into a DIY contest and received second place!
Woo-hooo! I should have been an industrial designer.

Text from design*sponge:

second place: jennifer who did a classy craigslist fix up! here were her steps for a fabulous cabinet makeover: "Take everything apart. Paint stripper to all surfaces. Get lamp rewired. Get new piece of plexiclass cut. Realize that stripping all the paint in the interior sections (the safe) is going to be a pain in the butt. Happen to see oil cloth at a fabric store and have an AH-HA! moment. Decide to use oil cloth to cover up the imperfect bits and to line the drawers and inside cabinet. Reassemble everything." congrats, jennifer!

And, just this afternoon (right before I left the office), I may have found my next DIY project on craigslist...
