Over the weekend we did a little cleaning and sorting, finding things that we could donate to the upcoming church garage sale. Â I had the kids pull an old cupboard out of the basement. Â As I was making supper I peeked out the window my son hosed it off and clean it. Â The more I got looking, the more I started thinking I couldn’t part with it.
I got this cupboard shortly after we were married. Â We didn’t have anything as far as furniture goes so I stripped the ugly gray paint off and tried my best to clean it up. Â When we moved to the farm where we live now, there just didn’t seem to be a place to put it. Â But…as it was sitting outside, ready to be loaded on the truck, I decided to try it in the house before I gave it away and the verdict….I am keeping it.
My daughter Kayla is home from college for a few days so I think we are going on a run to a couple antique stores and look for a couple crocks to go under the cupboard. Â I have a stain on the floor and I need to find something to cover it. Â I think I am going to hunt for another picnic basket to go on top of the one I already have. Â I don’t have a place for my dish towels and the picnic basket just might work. Â Check back tomorrow and see what we come up with…
OMG….it is wonderful!! I’m so glad you kept that!!
Great piece and it’ll be wonderful for displaying stuff!
That’s just great! I couldn’t part with that piece either. The decorating is most of the fun!
I don’t blame you for not parting with it. It looks terrific!!
