It was love at first sight when I saw this big green cabinet in a shop down in McKinney the other day!
It's tall and wide, but very narrow...
The paint is chipped and stained and, on places like the ends, there's no paint at all...
Then there's the fact that the cubicles in this shelf don't line up like most cubicle shelves do. Most are perfect squares, but not these...
I won't tell you Wild Bill's first thought, but my first thought was, "This would be perfect for our entryway."
Our walls are very high so it would fit right in...if only...if only it wasn't priced at $1,000 dirt and all.
I bought two small samples of their Vintage paint and called it a day. If only...
Thanks for stopping by!

Great looking cabinet! I love the color. Keep your eyes out for a moving sale. When I lived there, the shops were always changing locations around the square. Have a great week!
ReplyDeletePreppy, this shop used to be Gray Living if you remember it. Gray Living carried fabulous stuff, but just too over priced for the area.
DeleteIt is cute! And I love the green color! xoxo Su
ReplyDeletei love it. You have my permission to buy it. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the permission, but you'll need to send a check too. LOL. Seriously, it is so big I don't think I could get it home, even in our pickup truck. So we are just going to have to build something like it.
DeleteI love it!!!!! dirt and all.....Maybe .. just maybe they will reduce the price?? Eventually??
ReplyDeleteLisa, you're a girl after my own heart. I think the dirt is what made me love it all the more! Wild Bill said "you would think they wud'da cleaned it up a bit!"
DeleteYeah. I'm pretty much a sucker for "cubbies", too...
ReplyDeleteMe and you both Rebecca.
DeleteFabulous cabinet. Bet a handy person could make one and age it out to look very vintage if you love it so much! It would be beautiful if you don't have to have it simply because of the age!
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific cabinet. There is so much that you can do with it. Maybe for Mothers Day?
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and thanks so much for your prayers.
Hugs,
Mary
Take care Mary. You're in my thoughts each day.
DeleteI might agree with Wild Bill, although in the right place I agree they would have rustic charm. So when you going to start building your own?
ReplyDeleteWe are going to sell the house soon Mr. Cool, so I'm filing this idea away for a future time and place.
DeleteYes...I agree with the other comments - you should try and make one. Very charming.
ReplyDeleteYes, Mother's Day gift? Maybe they will go down in price?
ReplyDeleteI love it too, it conjured pictures of a bygone era. What you need is a 90% off sale...
ReplyDeletefor sure, Mama, for sure!
DeleteThat is beautiful. I have nothing to sell, but sometimes, I walk in shops and think, I could live here!
ReplyDeleteI can picture it.....maybe it will go on sale! It's wonderful.....
ReplyDeleteMissing your posts. Hope all is well and you'll be back soon.
DeleteYou still get to buy those shelves? Never knew.
ReplyDeleteI love the uneven shelves. I need one in my hall that is tall but thin. Thinking I shall one get around to building one...we will see! haha...This one is very nice. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletea little pricey indeed, dirt and all.
ReplyDeleteFeeling a twinge of cabinet love myself, it is gorgeous and super useful, and the color is perfect.
