Whenever I see repurposed furniture into litterbox stations I get really excited, so in that spirit here is my attempt

caption Because this is my first actual post with pictures, I honestly have no idea what I'm doing or how to make it so my album has captions, so I'll just go through the steps on here. I first bought an old crappy veneer hutch off kijiji for 25 bucks. I gave it a light sand, than used the Zinsser BullsEye primer to cover it. I did 2-3 coats (some areas had more stains that needed covering.) Then I painted a flat black overtop, again, 2-3 coats. Then I polyurethaned it, used the miniwax non-oil stuff, coating it with a sponge, lightly sanding in between. I took off the pressboard from the back and glued wallpaper to it, so it would have some visual interest. I used the old hardware and just spray painted it with rustoleum silver paint and primer for metal. I did most of the work in my parking stall after work and it took me about 2 weeks to complete. I put an baking soda fridge refresher inside, and use a high quality litter. My cat Nerm's been using it for about 2 weeks now, and seems to like it just fine. Had to buy a smaller box, but it didn't seem to bother him. The whole project costed me around 65 bucks. It's in my living room, and while most people might think that's gross, I live in an apartment, and I clean it twice a day, so I haven't noticed it smelling badly... Anyways, thanks for inspiring me reddit! I always get excited when I see peoples repurposed deluxe cat litter box furniture!
