After finding a battered cabinet on the curb and using it for several years, I knew it was time to repurpose it. The cabinet isn’t in good shape, but it made good storage for a time. If we ever hope to finish remodeling our bedroom, that cabinet needs to be gone! So, I upcycled one of the drawers into the PERFECT farmhouse repurposed drawer plant shelf. And here’s how I did it!
