This cabinet has been around for awhile.... It was first in the entry of my childhood home for many years - my Mom kept her good crystal in it. It then got passed on to my sister who kept her fish tank on it. Now I have it & it holds my jewelry making supplies.
The cabinet was VERY dated - does not go w/my decor at all, so I primed it...
Then I painted it Behr Blue Jewel - much too blue for me. Then painted it Behr Teal Zeal, not too sure of that color either, so I got out my 150 grit sandpaper & went a'sanding...
The picture doesn't do it justice - you can see the blue in some places & the white peaks through on the edges. I went to Anthropologie for the perfect handle -
loves it!!
Now I need to get some paint on those walls, now that the wallpaper is off.......
Wow what a transformation. I love the color you chose.

That handle is perfect and the color is one I've wanted in my house for awhile!
