Guesstimating they averaged $250+ apiece originally, think I did OK for $10 each?
    Going to ring interior perimeter with them, hung on French cleats; that I learned about in high school shop class....
    Yabbut, you're the antithesis of the average snowflake looking at those cabinets...

    We could use them to display our collection of cute cat pictures and stuffed animals.

    We couldn't hang them without interfering with the crown moldings.

    We could stick them to the wall with those removable strips.

    And cover all that special paint we had mixed to match the color of my fingernails; don't be silly.

    Well, they're cheaper than what we pay for firewood now.

    Maybe, but we'd have to hire someone to disassemble them; how tiresome.

    [Please note that, in an effort to be as woke as possible, I haven't specifiedd the gender of the two having this conversation.]
