A Simple Cabinet Makeover

Last week I worked on a fun cabinet makeover!  I have been needing 

a functional storage piece for our kitchen at the lake. The lakehouse 

was built around 1950, has very little storage, and small closets.  

So I am always looking for ways to remedy that situation!

{I participate in DecoArt's Blogger Outreach program, 

and was provided with the product used to re-do the cabinet.}

I found this nice wood cabinet at the thrift store.  It has two drawers, and the interior has a shelf.  I wasn't crazy about the color, though.  (Sorry...I had already started painting when I thought to take a photo...couldn't wait to get started)

I wanted a simple, clean finish and used two coats of 

DecoArt Americana Chalky Finish paint in the Yesteryear color...a light gray.

I chose not to distress the paint, and I even painted the knobs.

I followed up with a coat of Americana Decor Light Satin Varnish to seal it. 

Such an easy transformation.

We brought it down and put it in the kitchen, against a brick wall.

I will be adding a wall rack above it for pots and pans. I love how it turned out, 

and it will provide some much needed storage to the kitchen!
