We bought this little record cabinet cheap at a junk store recently. The bottom was natural wood, but we thought it would look more up-to-date with a painted finish. We hoped to take it out of its l970s misery. Sorry, no 'before' picture.
Bob refinished the cherry top, and gave the bottom a painted and glazed finish.
It turned out nice, we think.
Evidently, someone else did, too. It sold within 15 minutes of being delivered to the consignment store!
OK, it's the first day of summer - now can we have Fall & Winter? In arid Colorado, it is hot, dry, buggy, windy and the forest fires are raging. So many homes have been lost; please pray for those people in harm's way.
I'm joining the following parties -- please go by these blogs for inspiration galore.
Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis Monday
Coastal Charm for Nifty Thrifty Tuesday
Restore Interiors for Restored It Wednesday
The Shabby Creek Cottage for Transformation Thursday
Miss Mustard Seed for Furniture Feature Friday

Hi Sally! Oh, your little cabinet looks beautiful and you sold it!! :) I'm sure the buyer will love it. Stay safe from those fires. Are they anywhere close to you? Love your new header!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Very good looking piece! And I agree about the heat and the bugs! The haze comes all the way out here and the other evening the air even smelled smoky.♥♫
You made it a beautiful piece. I'm always amazed what paint does for furniture. I'm glad you were immediately rewarded! The fires are terrible. Folks have lost homes in NM too. I'm used to the heat, but I wouldn't want to spend the midday out in it. You left me an awful nice comment. Thanks so much.
Nice! I find that pieces of this size are quick sells becvause they don't take up much floor space but offer decent storage. COngrats!
The cabinet turned out really nice. I can see why it went so quickly. We have terrible fires raging here in UT also. I pray for wveryones safety.
Hugs,

Hi Sally! Thanks for popping in and I hope it's not too hot your way.
