Paint it a white that can be distressed and cut extra spindles to attach to the side as hanging area (knobs/hooks). Could be put in a bathroom or guest bathroom depending in size and the available room-for towels, accents, and the extra spindles- for hanging towels, robes, whatever extra that won't clutter or take away from beauty. It's a great find. Whatever you do with it, I'm sure it'll be perfect for it's new use. Good luck!

I've recently found out that I hate my desk and am trasitioning to my kitchen table (I just work better there). I'm getting rid of the desk, but that means a lot of storage space is gone now. I would use it to store all the randoms from the desk. And probably paint it teal.

Continue to display nick nacks on it, but remove the spindles so as to remove the boxiness of it. Definitely paint it, the dark stain wouldn't work in my house.
