Tweaking & thrifting...

Good morning ladies! Thank you for your comments on the china cabinet make over, I'm happy that you like it too. I just thought I'd show you some tweaking I have done with the top of the cabinet. I had to take my daughter for her Orthodontist appointment yesterday, which is just a hop, skip and a jump away from one of my favourite thrift stores, so naturally.....................

I picked up a runner for the top of the cabinet...


and a lovely little flowered runner that I've put inside the cabinet....


I also found this blue table cloth and the big cream coloured ceramic house....


which I think looks nice on the breakfast table in my little kitchen nook...


It was love at first sight! Oh how I wish I could just wave a magic wand..........and move in there! lol


Ok, gotta run busy day ahead! Have a wonderful day ladies........love Amanda xxx

The cabinet looks wonderful! I'm not a fan of painting wood, but sometimes it's necessary to make the piece shine and it really does now!! Beautifully done :)

hugs,

Such a simple cabinet but filled with plenty. Just think of all the changes through the seasons you can make!
