This Little Cabinet Rules

I started with this $1 cabinet from the thrift store--notice the opening is off-center.
So I tried to even it out, but it didn't turn out so well.
 After a paint job, I added vintage rulers to frame out the hole, a little chicken wire and two shelves inside. 
It would be a great little spice cabinet or storage piece in the bathroom.
