Repurposed kitchen cabinet

When I decided to remove this cabinet from my kitchen, I stuck it in the garage for a bit not knowing what to do with it.  I used one of the cabinet doors to make a pull out trash can and figured I would throw the rest out later.

Then my sister, being the clever gal that she is, stumbled on an idea from Pinterest to repurpose a cabinet into a storage table,

Supplies:

• Chalk paint (Americana Decor - Primitive.  Purchased @ Sutherlands $7.99)
• 4 table legs ($2.48/ea @ Lowe's)
• 4 table leg angle top plates ($1.98/ea @ Lowe's)
• 3 - 1"x6"x4' whitewood boards ($1.88/ea @ Lowe's)
• Minwax stain (dark walnut - didn't spend any on this, had from a previous project)

 After wiping down the cabinet, I filled all the existing holes with woodfiller and attached the new legs.

Then I cut the top boards down to size, my cabinet is 30"x12".

After cutting the 3 boards I used a router to make them look a bit more finished.  I attached them using staples, which I put in on the under side so you couldn't see them.  I also sanded the top.

I decided to stain the top first just in case I got messy....I know myself way too well.

Here's the paint I used.

Almost done with my first coat.

2 coats down, and I'm going to seal it with a clear wax.

Well, it didn't fit next to the bed.  I was going to use this in place of the two night stands I have but it just didn't work out.  So here she is...

And the before and after...
