Repurposed For Sure! Chalkboard Door Cupboard Cabinet

This posting is for a wonderful 1930's solid wood cabinet, the original broken glass door has been replaced with a chalkboard to add a whimsical and more usable touch. The exterior has been given a nice warm coat of creamy paint and the inside is the most calming and beautiful blue. The interior is just enough pop of color without detracting from it's contents, whatever you might choose to store in there. This cabinet would be wonderful for a kitchen pantry (with shopping list on the blackboard, or dinner menu); in a dining room for as a china cabinet, in a bathroom as a linen closet or even more fun... in a child's room to store/hide toys and books. Anywhere you put this item, it is sure to be a conversation piece.
