the little cabinet that could

This old girl has been around our house for a long time.
So long I don't remember where she came from but
she's been used for all kinds of things. 
 In all kinds of places.
Most recently to hold the TV.
I had left over paint from a project I did last year.
And decided it was time to get rid of the green, and since we
were moving all the wires, etc. it was time to get the box out from
under the cabinet. I didn't like the clutter.
And the finished project. Now the clutter
has been moved to the top! But at least I have worked
since this photo and hidden the wires.
I think this may be the last time I paint this little cabinet…
but … one never knows for sure ….

  1. Oh Dotsie, those wires, those wires. You should see our den; it's enough to make me crazy. I may have to hire a decorator to advise me on what to do with all these wires.

    I love the green that your cabinet used to be; it's just charming. However, the new color is so pretty, too. It looks a little dressier than the green. I didn't click on the link, but I think I remember that project from last year. Paint is a wonderful thing -- so much bang for the buck. Thanks for sharing, Dotsie, and have a great week!

    Hugs,

    Denise

  2. I like the new paint on your cabinet, Dotsie. It looks like a really sturdy piece that has served you well over the years. It's nice to solve the wire issue as well. Have a nice evening. ♥

  8. I love those ever- changing versatile commodes....to think the bottom part used to house porcelain potties is amazing, isn't it?

    I have my mother's as a table between two twin beds in a guest bedroom - one of the few things I have of my mom's - and I absolutely love it.

    Love your commode's new color - looks excellent!
