Console Table Gets Painted

We purchased this piece specifically to hide 2 kitty litter boxes. All 3 doors slide open, the back of the unit is completely open (so the cat's can walk into the back) and inside we'll cut into the bottom 2 holes big enough to slip the boxes into. Scored off of Craigslist for $20, it only took some transit gasoline and some manpower to get it to the house.


BEFORE


We sanded off the glossy finish, spray painted primer, and hand painted a flat black. Although the pictures don't show it here, you can see the wood grain through the paint - so it looks like it was professionally finished.

After we got it into place, we realized we'll have to cut a kitty door into the side of the console because we like it best pushed flush against the wall. Which I might add was my original plan for the piece (men never listen).

Here is a shot of the console in the room with the rest of the furniture in place.
