How Do You Decorate A Metal File Cabinet?
A metal file cabinet is one of those utilitarian pieces that most people own, but few people decorate. In fact, that industrial design can drag down your room’s decor. Invest some money and sweat equity into doing a metal file cabinet makeover, and add some interesting accessories that make the look stand out. Remove any papers and folders from the inside of the metal file cabinet. Use a screwdriver to take off drawer pulls or any other exterior hardware. Take a cloth rag and dust the exterior and interior of the cabinet. Dip another cloth rag in warm water mixed with a gentle soap and clean the inside and outside of the metal file cabinet. Consider different paints or finishes for coating the metal file cabinet’s surface. Use special paints and spray enamels, or measure panels of contact paper to cover the cabinet. Modular carpet tiles can add texture, color and patterns to a file cabinet. If you decide to paint, do two to three coats, allowing the paint to dry between coats. Embellis
