(Sorry I couldn’t get it in the house and dress it up, but just couldn’t do it.  :-(

I bought this old stereo cabinet for $10 at a garage sale. 
It is very heavy – solid wood.  The “guts” and back had been removed.   My husband put a new floor in it and a back on it.  I replaced the shredded fabric with wire.   The top was stained darker and the rest was painted with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Country Grey with a waxed finish.

I think now it is a perfect storage piece or even could be used for the DVR/speakers for a TV.   It is going in the parking lot sale this weekend.  What do you think – how much should I ask for it?
