Welcome Sue! I am so happy that you found my tiny corner of the WWW. 🙂

I thank you so much for your sweet comment, it made my day! YOU are why I love doing what I do. Many people on Facebook saw my magazine rack, only a few had angry faces about me giving it a fresh new look.

Have fun with your next project!

You are an amazing and talented lady. Just found you. Not sure where I have been but I’m grateful I’m here now. Your work is wonderful and your eye to see other ways to repurpose furniture pieces is great. I really enjoy making something in a whole different way. I have only painting furniture for three years but I cannot stop. I love the search, painting, and embellishing of furniture. Thank you for sharing your ideas and talents with us. I subscribed so I wouldn’t lose you.

Donna,
Thanks so much for your sweet comment AND featuring this project on your New Upcycle Ideas! This little lady had waited very long for her much needed makeover. I have no idea why I waited for so long.

Take care!

Genius ideas on how to use a magazine rack you can cart stuff around in! The file folder idea is a total win I really need and want. Thanks for the awesome inspiration, Gail!

Mary,

hahaha I have a CRATE full of my favorite magazine issues. My cousin Terry wanted this when she saw the BEFORE picture, so I think now she really loves it after the makeover.

LOVE how this turned out, Gail. And EWWWWWW the nicotine that your surface prep removed is insane!! What an important step to take before painting- making a mental note of that product for sure!

I love all the different versions of the magazine rack that you suggested! It was really cute and unexpected with towels!

Gail, I love the grab and go idea! I’m wondering if I have one of these little racks in my garage? This will be great for files in the office! Pinned!
