I am hunting for a china cabinet for my dining room. I really want to paint a vintage piece a bright color.
I have had this picture saved forever. I actually saved this one on paper, long before I discovered Pinterest. I love the bright turquoise with the pretty paper in the back.

I want this china cabinet SO BAD. I know its largely a DIY, but I haven't found anything similarly shaped on craigslist. I assure you I have been looking quite diligently.

The problem with china cabinets is that I don't really have "china" or a lovely collection of milkglass that I want to display. I need to hide extra pots and pans and holiday servingware and all my craft supplies. I'd prefer something with a solid door. If I find a china cabinet I like I am willing to swap out glass panels for a mirrored panel, but everything on craigslist I've seen so far has tiny, fussy doors, or is exactly what I want but the seller wants $3000 for it.
I'll keep looking. I am also contemplating trying to DIY something out of the many pieces of furniture out in the garage.

I do share your love of china cabinets; they are lovely and really draw attention in a room. The black one you showed is my favorite; I love the black and white with the silver. Very urban chic.
ReplyDeleteI had that same problem, I just want to be able to keep a bunch of junk in my china cabinet, so I ended up "glueing" some fabric to the glass with spray starch, after many failed experiments with wrapping paper and double sided tape.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the blue hutch from woodweb.com!
ReplyDeleteI share your passion!
ReplyDeleteI even have the same picture of the first cabinet in my book of ideas and the woodweb hutch is my new lust. Great ideas. Thanks for sharing.
