I bought it.
It comes with sweet metal hardware cabinet pulls...but they've been painted white! I'm hoping I can remove the paint on them, or find a good duplicate. Or I guess I could always spray the hardware back to the nickel color.Here is one of the doors: the owner had removed them to paint them and replace the glass.
a close up look at the grungy but perfect details. (I love grungy. grungy = the difference between auction price and marked up antique mall price.)
It will be fabulous. very soon.
I also scored THIS little number.
For FREE.Yeah, that lil' red price tag says $49.50
She gave it to me for FREE!
FREE!
Got me the little blue 1940's baking dish, too...to go in my baking cabinet, of course!
Soooo black or cherry red cabinet? I just can't leave it white. It doesn't fit in my kitchen. Plus, my stuff will look lost in a white cabinet. Aaron vetoed the robin's egg blue, and mustard yellow. I say "fair enough" considering I still GOT the cabinet with nothing more than a "I trust you. If you really love it, go get it." I'm really leaning toward black, and then just FILLING it with color. The red plates & casserole pan. The white cake stand & cookie tray. My black & white Hobby Lobby plates (that I would kill to have 2 more of) the new blue dish. Most importantly, and the whole reason I went hunting for a cabinet anyway, the flour, sugar, rice, beans, pasta containers.
And unless I rearrange some furniture...I don't even really have a PLACE for the lil' black table (doesn't have to stay black, the paint job is garbage and will have to be redone anyway). Anyone need this coffee table more than I do?
I do love it, but it could end up yours if it decides it doesn't like my living room.

OOoooo I love your cabinet! Congrats! (BTW it would rock painted black.)
Love the cabinet. As for the chairs, I know someone that replaced the seat part of 2 old bar chairs with glass and made them into night stands. I always loved it!!!
I vote red. Red and black equals magic. Happy new cabinet day!
I love the cabinet and am pretty jealous that it is yours and not mine. Oh well. More than the cabinet, I love the picture of Corbin. So cute!
Oh you foul temptress! I would take that awesome coffee table in a heart beat. If I were closer!!
Oh and I vote black for the cabinet.
Black for sure. antique it up/destress it...all that cool stuff you do to stuff.
Black for the cabinet. It is so awesome!
Try soaking those pulls in paint thinner.
Love it! I've been looking for something very similar.Ok, actually I haven't really been looking, just on craigslist. I need to get out there I guess! I say paint it black since you have red dishes. Oh, and I'll take the coffee table off your hands. Do you ship to Seattle? :)
I love that cabinet and I love the table as well! Can't wait to see how you make them even more fabulous!
I would go with RED!
Have fun with your latest project!
I can't wait to see what you do! Did you get that table from True Treasures for free?!!! That is awesome. I really need to come and check out your house!
