Hey there! I’m so excited to share my new Anthropologie Inspired Printers Cabinet!
I was smitten with the Anthropologie original I spotted but at a whopping $1,698.00, I knew that I needed to enlist the help of our very talented friend, Ana White to design something similar!
Here are the steps I took to build this baby, with Purebond Plywood, for $200 ~ INCLUDING hinges and pulls!
Frame constructed. I chose a sheet of 3/4″ Purebond in Birch for the entire frame. I had the nice guys at Home Depot rip the boards down for me which made it much easier to fit into my SUV and cut once I got them home! We shared why we have pledged to build with Purebond HERE.
Face on the frame.
Of course, Kreg made a huge appearance in this post! From the frame to the trim, every screw is hidden thanks to my Kreg Jig!

I LOVE these hinges! I also installed them in my Pottery Barn Inspired Media Console. You can get them at Home Depot for $3 per set. They are very strong and easy to install!
This is the stain I used on this piece! Rust-Oleum Ultimate Wood Stain in Early American.
The color is a new Shanty favorite! You can find it at Lowe’s. We also used it on our Shanty Hall Tree Bench!
I found these great pulls on Amazon for $2.38 each! I also got a discounted shipping rate for purchasing 12 ~ whoop!!
Ahhhh I am loving this cabinet under our TV in our bedroom! It has great storage, I love the stain color and it was only $200!!! Thanks again to Ana for her awesome FREE DIY Vintage Printers Cabinet plans!
And, because I love to give good recommendations when I have them, I am so happy to share with all of you DFW locals, PGAV Audio Video Solutions.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Beautiful work! Working through it now… One question: your wood looks wonderfully distressed. What wood did you buy? Common board pine? Something else?
Trying with common board now, just curious and it seems like a great project with reclaimed wood too.
Thank you! Yes, common board pine 🙂 it is perfect for a reclaimed wood project!
Why does this stain look so different from the stain used on the Pottery Barn inspired island y’all did in Early American by Rust-Oleum? I’m guessing it’s the lighting?
LOVE!!! Just saw this on your instagram post. We don’t have PUREBOND in Boise…will regular ol’ plywood be ok or is it going to look like junk?
Good morning – I’m wondering how many coats of stain you applied, and if the pictures reflect it’s true finished color.
Thank you Ashley!
Hi Jeni,
I applied 1 and yes! I did not alter the color of the photo so this is true to color. Thanks!

How did you attach the faux drawer 1×4 and 1×2’s together? Do they just attach to the 1×3’s and thats it? No nailing or gluing each other?
Wow! You knocked it out of the ballpark. Your printer’s cabinet is beautiful.
Thanks so much Sharon;)
