Retro Counter Cabinet Redo

     Cute and simple redo.  I am such a sucker for yellow.  Our walls above the wainscoting is this same yellow but it doesn't seem as bright as it does on this little counter piece.
     We ended up keeping the linoleum top on it because it's hard to argue with the time period thing and also because it was in perfect condition.  The metal trim was all intact, so I just buffed it with some steel wool to clean it up.
     The inside was lined with contact paper that was half falling off but my trusty heat gun took care of the rest of it.
     Oh, the powers of a coat of paint!

  1. Nice job! I too am a sucker for yellow, but it has to be the right yellow.
