Great idea and I love how you re-did the file cabinet.

What a very cool idea! Love the way you fixed the fronts of the drawers, pretty and functional.

you could also use the file cabinets for your monthly magazines, instead of taking up space on shelves.

Like the idea - but I have a question - in the hanging filing folders - do you have the fabrics folded or on cardboard? How does the fabric stay so straight? In a hanging folder, I would think the fabric would fall. Just curious, because I have some file drawers I can re-purpose.
