I converted a large white cube storage unit into a more stylish cubby for our playroom, we cut the cube unit down to be an 8 cube unit, by adding a pine frame to the base it lifted it off the ground and added some extra character, we then added a pine timber top stained in walnut stain and clear coat. We sanded, primed and painted the unit in my favourite green, added some nice baskets from Bunnings and now the kids have a place to store all there toys that looks nice too.

That is such a unique and functional way of using cube storage. I trust you are delighted with the results! Well done thinking outside the box and creating such a brilliant addition to your home.

Well done.

Hi @oheyitsbeano 

 

Let me tag @Leaht to make sure they are aware of your kind words. I love the green colour of the cabinet, but the finish on the top is superb. If you ever decide to make something similar, please make sure to post an update.
