Default China Cabinet

Got this on Jt a while ago from Shannosi -- only finished it last week. It shows that even old china cabinets can be given a new modern twist. Glass knobs got in Homebase for 6 euro and wallpaper got in woodies for one euro. Just have to get more nice pieces to fill it.

I was showing my son the before and after pics and he said it looks amazing, the paper at the back really sets it off perfect. Well done. Bernie

Thanks for all the nice coments, hope you all get inspired enough to give it a go, and give all these old pieces of furniture a new lease of life.
