It is really cute and was well taken care\u00a0of, for the most part. It is an older house so some of the closets and cabinets needed some\u00a0sprucing up. So, I decided to re-cover the shelves in one of the closets and to re-cover the\u00a0cabinet underneath the bathroom sink.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Items needed<\/span>:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Contact Paper \u2013 any design you choose<\/li>\n<li>Scissors or Box Cutter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Directions<\/span>:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Clean the area you want to re-cover the best you can. I had to bleach underneath\u00a0the bathroom sink before I could begin this process. I let it dry overnight as well\u00a0because it was really dirty!<\/p>\n<p>Pre-measure the amount of contact paper you will need. Then, cut the paper.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 For the shelves, I wrapped the contact paper around the edges so it would stay\u00a0in place. <span class=\"GINGER_SOFATWARE_correct\">For<\/span> the bathroom cabinet, I had to use two pieces of contact paper and\u00a0overlap them in order to cover completely.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Take off the back of the contact paper and gently stick the paper in place. Rub all\u00a0the air bubbles out with your hand or a sponge.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Put the shelves back in place and you are done.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15392\" alt=\"Pic1\" src=\"http:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic1.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic1.jpg 500w, https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic1-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15393\" alt=\"Pic2\" src=\"http:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic2.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Pic2-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The before and after pictures tell it all.
