Hello everyone,
Today I an joining Cindy again for show and tell Friday so I am sharing a cupboard for my linens that got a bit of a makeover.
The cupboard was given to me and it was painted gold with four doors on it. I am sorry I forgot to take a picture of it. I gave the cupboard a couple of coats of creamy white paint and my husband made the doors for me. As you can see they have chicken wire on them so you can see my quilts inside.
We still have to put knobs on the doors.
It sat on the floor before but we put legs on it that are really fence post tops painted to match. I found the little scalloped edge trim at Micheal's and we put it around the bottom.
I love seeing the quilts stacked inside it.
Now, I will end with a pretty collage of flowers from our garden last summer.
If you haven't already been to Cindy's My Romantic Home go and enjoy visiting Show and Tell Friday.
Thank you for visiting me and I wish you all a wonderful weekend!
Carolyn

What a beautiful cupboard :)
Very pretty cupboard! I love your quilts!
That is so pretty! And I love the pretty teaset in your header!
What a lovely place to put your quilts.
Well isn't that just adorable! I love the clean white and the coop wire.. it's perfect!
Now you need a few tiny hearts to hang on the door knob.
with love,

Dear Carolyn,
Your cupboard makeover is beautiful!!! I love the color you painted it and all of the sweet details. I think the chicken wire is lovely and enables you to see your beautiful quilts! The flower mosaic was so pretty! Before too long you will be sharing photos everything blooming in your garden. I purchased a few flowers today, and I can hardly wait to plant them tomorrow. I love to garden, and hope one day mine will be as lovely as yours!
Love, Paula
Carolyn your posts continue to inspire and delight! thank you..a very pretty cupboard indeed!
Hi Carolyn, Great linen cupboard! I love the ball feet and scalloped bottom... fence toppers and trim at Michaels that is thinking out of the box! Clever! Bella
I love your pretty little cupboard Carolyn. I think chicken wire gives so much charm to doors. I have it in my TV armoir. I love that you put it up on legs.
of course I am loving the mosaic that you created with last years blooms.

Hi Carolyn
That is so pretty. I like the idea of using the round fence post tops for feet.I'm going to file that idea away for a future project.
Love the chicken wire...
think I'll change the screen in mine to that!
LOve the inspiration...
Your linens look at home there!

I love your linen cupboard with all of your quilts stacked inside. The doors with the chicken wire inserts are perfect. Great idea too about adding the legs made out of fence post toppers. That made it the perfect height too. I love painting furniture white or cream. Your home is so beautiful.

Oh, what a lovely linen cupboard! I admire the wonderful quilts I see tucked in there - chicken wire is such a great idea!
Amazing that a little scalloped edging can make such a delightful difference...

Carolyn that is such a gorgeous cupboard makeover! I love, love, love the new doors with chicken wire. What a clever idea. It's perfect for your beautiful quilts. Your flowers were gorgeous last year and I'm sure you are excitedly waiting to see them appear again this year. Did I tell you I goofed my old blog up and have started anew? I'm now at Cottage Palette. ♥
Hello Carolyn,
Your cupboard is very pretty. That´s an idea for thought...
The amaryllis is looking beautiful, very nice color.
Have a nice weekend,
Sanna
Oh. I just love your cabinet. What a beautiful way to display all of your beautiful quilts and things.
Very, very pretty! Love the green fabrics.
Carolyn, what a lovely idea! Wow, you did a great job on the makeover of the cupboard....I love your quilts, so pretty!
Beautiful your cupboard !
Hugs from me.....
I love to see quilts displayed where everyone can see them. Yours are beautiful.
Carolyn your cupboard is adorable, and that was a great idea to have new doors like that put on with chicken wire... Who wants to hide all the pretties inside... It's always a great look to see in!!
Enjoy your Weekend*
That is really a pleasure to look at. All those quilts folded so beautifully in the cupboard. I bought a few crochet blankets from the car boot sales last year just so I could get pleasure looking at them all neatly folded in the cupboard!
Good work. I like the legs. Inspired! xx
What a beautiful cupboard. I love that you can see the contents. The quilts are beautiful! I hope you show us the quilts some time. :)
Blessings,
Sandra
