Vintage Cupboard Project


I picked up this old cupboard in the countryside--in an old barn. It was covered in grime, dust, and cobwebs...yuck...even came complete with a daddy longleg!

With lots of cleaning, scrubbing, painting and tlc this cupboard is about ready for a new home! I see vintage quilts, tablecloths, and other beautiful things folded neatly!

  3. Great find Shellagh! And nice paint job. I wanted to throw out an idea that I did on a piece that Dan made me- I too painted the inside a french blue, then I used a dark wax over the paint. It's a great look- very old, very European. If you're interested just email me and I'll tell you product names/technique, etc.
