The cabinet was painted black and sprayed with a satin coat of finish (I know it looks shiny here but it's my poor skill in making pictures). I wanted to distress it but the white underneath would not allow this. I still am VERY pleased with the results. It has two shelves inside if I want to put things on the shelves.
I put the shelf that I had finished awhile back on it. If you remember....I had it sitting on an old record player and it looked ok, but I never was completely satisfied. We have moved that to another spot. I love my new "prim look" cabinet!
I'm off today to Christmas Village. It's a HUGE show that I look forward to each year. I'll be posting about that later.

ReplyDeleteThat looks fantastic!
They look like they were meant to go together.
You, and your husband, did a very good job.
I need to find something like that. I'm heading to goodwill later today. You never know what you will find!
Have a great weekend!

Your cabinet looks amazing!! I love it with the hutch on top!
ReplyDeleteHope you find your missing tub in the attic! :) I hate it when that happens.
It looked great all by itself but with the other shelf on top = it makes such a statement! Wonderful make over!!
ReplyDeleteHi Sue,
ReplyDeleteYour cabinet looks FABULOUS...you did a great job on it....especially with that hutch on the top!
That looks great! What a wonderful way to re-use something you have.
ReplyDeleteSue ~ I just love it. You and your husband did an excellent job. I can't wait to see it decked out for Christmas.

It turned out beautiful Sue! I loved that gorgeous tree in the other post...only a few of our trees have started turning their colors...our big bradford pears are still full and green with just a touch of burgandy! lol But my dogwoods are beautiful! Have a great time at the Christmas show...can't wait to see what you find!

Hi Sue, That turned out really well, you did a terrific job- I know that you'll enjoy it a lot. Hope you had fun at Christmas Village.
ReplyDeleteYour cabinet turned out great! It is always fun when we can re-do something that we have hanging around the house.

The cabinet looked nice in white, but it's even better in black!
ReplyDeleteYour cabinet looks awesome...and the hutch on top makes it look all the better! Hope you had fun at your Christmas show:) <3Lauren
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! That looks awesome! I wish I had the ability to see the things that I could do with things that I already have and make something totally brand-new out of it like that. And I love the black against the color of paint you have on your walls. My kitchen is close to that color. I think black and white photos also really stand out with that shade of paint behind them. Thanks for sharing this idea with us.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love your cabinet! Great job!Nancy
