cedar cupboard gets the white treatment

this old cedar cupboard has most certainly seen better days.
along it's journey, it has lost it's doors which is a bit sad, but freshened
up in crisp white paint, it now has a new start.

the inside got as much attention as the outside.
rather than try to hide it's scars, i decided to make them stand out
and tell a story.
do you like my new aqua bag? it was my fav Thailand purchase :)
when i'm not out and about showing it off, it can sit out and hold one of
my many crochet tablecloths, or a soft throw rug now the evenings
are a little on the chilly side.
i won't be letting this one go in a hurry. i can think of millions of uses for it!

unfortunately, there's no room to bring in more furniture into this home of mine
unless i let another piece go. that's the hard part!




before....
well i'm off to get another painting project on the go
before school pickup!

  1. LOVE the bag Kate, also love the idea of using bags as storage or just on display - i have a little collection and can't use them all, so hate just leaving them hidden away!!
