My office had recently relocated, and they were ready to give up the old Ikea furniture and do something fun! I took the task upon myself to do some projects to help out!
There was a lack of storage space- particularly hidden storage- so I found these ugly lockers on KSL for a steal of a deal. They were all rusty and dented, and there were some serious skeptics who weren't so sure that they could be turned around...

Challenged accepted! |
Poppa White loaned me his wire brush drill head (is that the official name?), which really helped get all the junk off of them.
I painted the handles gold...
And the frame black! I then did an ombre yellow-blue spectrum. I think that it turned out awesome!
Ta-da! What a difference!
These things were kind of a pain in the butt, and took for-freaking-ever, but I think I proved the skeptics wrong :) This sucker will provide a ton of storage, and in my opinion, look pretty cool, too!
