Little project. Eventually, if budget allows, we’d like to do a big corner built-in china cabinet in this area. But we had a chest that we’ve used for about two decades now, and a few weekends ago, someone in a local group was selling this bar cabinet for $50. At parties, we’d been running very short of serving space, so…
It’s not my favorite kind of wood, sort of glossy, but a coat of paint later, I quite like it. (I am not a wood purist — sometimes I like to strip paint off to reveal really nice wood, but mediocre wood, I am quite happy to cover up with paint.) I may add a stencil pattern to the top eventually, stars or flowers, but I’m going to live with it for a while first.
