Dress up a medicine cabinet with old barnwood or molding.
Robb Whittlef shares how to create a garden bench out of a coffee table, a bathroom towel rack out of a window frame and make a decorative medicine cabinet using old barn wood.

Garden Bench

An old coffee table provides a stable base for a garden bench. The decorative back was previously part of a headboard and the side pieces and legs were taken from other discarded pieces.

Window Frame

A discarded window frame and large piece of molding are screwed together to make an interesting bathroom towel rack. The window framed is screwed into the molding at an angle and hooks are attached to the front of the molding.

Framed Medicine Cabinet

Old barnwood is used to make a rustic wood frame when mitered and screwed into place around the front of a simple medicine cabinet.
