ok, and the before:
I only have this one photo to share today, as blogger and I are not on good terms - is anyone else having the same problem? I'm even struggling to log in at the moment. But anyway, I quickly popped some of my vintage pink china on the shelves, and thought the it looked rather pretty against the chippy, peely, aqua paintwork. You may remember my inspiration was the blue cupboard revamped by the lovely Maria over at Dreamy Whites :
gorgeous, no?
This cabinet will probably end up in my art studio, to hold all of my art supplies, but in the meantime I thought it might be fun to style the shelves in a few different ways - which I'll do over the next few weeks.
Ok, it's back to some real work for me, so I'll catch you all later.
Have a great day,
Looks gorgeous Kerri! Love the aqua blue chippy peely paint against the white. And the china - ooh sooo pretty. Hope your having a great Monday. Michelle
ReplyDeleteI love it! You are a clever possum :)
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE it Kerri! What a gorgeous piece! Your china is so pretty in it but art supplies would be great too :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! I too have been having trouble with my posts. It seems the tools bar wouldn't load, I have changed from explorer to firefox and it is now much better. Letitia x

Your cabinet looks fantastic Kerri. I love the chippy old paint contrasting against the crisp clean interior. xx
ReplyDeleteWell done - this looks gorgeous, while still keeping the original edgy look.
ReplyDeleteI hear you on the computer front. I am having trouble just keeping the connection to the server for the past week. Frustrating, but working through it.
Have a lovely week.

I know how you feel. Blogger is not always responding as it should be. Drives me bonkers, but there we are "keep calm and carry on". Have a wonderful week Kerri despite blogger trouble xoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Kerri, Yes I was wondering about that piece and am so glad you posted about it again. I think you have done a great job, it looks very pretty with your vintage china. It is a great feeling when you actually get to finish a project. I am on a go slow at present.... I think its the return of cold weather! Have a great week. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe pink and white china looks perfect against the white background. It looks fantasticc to me, with just the right amount of chippiness.
ReplyDeletehi kerri, i thought i was the only one having probs with logging in. anyhoo your cupboard turned out lovely. very freshened up and a wonderful backdrop for your pretties.
ReplyDeletehugs,

And I forgot to tell you yesterday how fabulous I think this is - it looks so crisp and such a good contrast to the original paintwork (listen to me - I sound as though I know what I'm talking about!) Anyway, I like. Good job. A x
