Locker Hack – Bring New Life to a Vintage School Locker as a Funky Sideboard

I have several furniture projects that in my blog pipeline :) After finding Ana-white.com a while back and getting inspired by some of her projects. I’m tackling all sorts of my own DIY furniture projects! This straightforward locker transformation is one of my fav’s! Ward and I found this gem at a antique store’s going out of business sale. We got it for $120. I then spent another $310 on lumber (I bought Fir which is WAY more than say … Pine or Poplar).

I have a tutorial on my blog that goes in detail, unfortunately I never take enough pictures and I only got one before picture.
