~♥ SWEET GLASS CABINET/CUPBOARD ♥~

I KNOW SOME OF YOU WILL *GASP* ON WHY? O? WHY? DID I PAINT THIS???

YEP, IT WAS A COOL CABINET THE WAY IT WAS... BUT BELIEVE ME! NOT AS COOL AS IT APPEARS! MY NEW LIL' GRAND*DAUGHTER ADDIE'S ROOM IS BRIGHT PINKS & BROWNS... IT LOOKS TOTALLY CUTE !!! THIS LOOKS LIKE IT WOULDA BEEN PERFECT FOR THAT!
BUT I PAINTED THIS BEFORE I EVEN KNEW I WAS HAVING A PRINCESS GRAND*DAUGHTER! AND THE PAINT WAS CHIPPING & WOULDA BEEN PROBABLY A SAFETY ISSUE WITH PAINT CHIPS! {HUBBY ALWAYS SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT THAT... TO ME YOU WOULD HAVE TO EAT ALOT OF CUPBOARDS... I WOULD THINK, HA.HA.} THE PINKISH COLOR WAS NOT REALLY A PINK... MORE OF AN ORANGEY COLOR WHICH I LOVE, BUT NOT FOR THIS SPOT I WANTED A CABINET FOR. IT WAS ALSO VARNISHED IN SOME AREAS & SOME IT WAS SHINEY LAQUERED LOOK... SO IT WAS NOT AS REALLY "COOL" AS IT MAY APPEAR... {SERIOUS} COZ I LOVE, CHIPPY, WORN & NOT SOO GOOD CONDITION STUFF!!! I LOVED. THE SIZE OF IT, ALL THE GLASS KNOBS, LIL' DRAWERS & SHELVES & GLASS DOORS... TOOO SWEET ♥

I AM MORE OF A PRIMITIVE TYPE, RUSTIC ~ DARK COLORED FURNITURE LOOK GAL WITH A TOUCH OF BLING, ROMANCE, VINTAGE LOOK {DUNNO WHAT LOOK THAT COULD BE SHORTENED TO!} ... & I WAS LOOKING FOR A PIECE TO GO IN OUR BEDROOM. SINCE I REPAINTED & GOT RID OF ALL THE AMERICANA IN THERE & WENT MORE VINTAGE. THE CABINET IS SOO CUTE & THE PAINT COVERED UP THE VARNISHED AREAS WHERE I SANDED... BUT SOME SPOTS ARE STILL LUMPY, WHICH TO ME ARE JUST FINE! SO ADORE "NOTSO PERFECT!"


WILL WRITE & SHOW MORE PICS OF THE BEDROOM & OTHER FURNITURE I HAVE PAINTED SOME TIME SOON...
HUGS & BLESSINGS, HUMBLE ♥
