Cute Blue & White Curio Cabinet

Happy White Wednesday (a day early!). If you have never visited Kathleen over at Faded Charm, be sure to do so!  Each week she hosts a great linky party called White Wednesday, so stop on over!  I wanted to share my little curio cabinet with you today.  I wish that I had a before picture for you, but I purchased this severa1 years ago, long before I had a blog (How often have I said those words?!).  Anyway, I picked it up at a yard sale for only a dollar, and it was not only very dirty, but an ugly gold color!  And plastic, did I mention plastic? (kind of like syrocco).  After a good scrubbing and sanitizing, I painted her Heirloom White.  I could almost hear her breath a sigh of relief!

For the backing, I used this wonderful blue and white toile fabric, that I have used in many other projects.  I just adore toile!  Lets take a closer look at the treasures inside:

I really love the swirly design on this cute little mini ceramic urn below.

Isn't this little hobnail glass pitcher cute?

A friend gave me this pretty toile vintage glass perfume bottle.  I just love it & have never seen anything like it.

She also gave me this sweet little porcelain dish.  Love the flowers.

Two pretty vintage teacups, and a little Eiffel Tower we got on a trip to Paris.

I couldn't get a very good picture of it, but I really like this vintage pressed glass cruet my Mom gave me years ago.

This photo has got to be one of the dorkiest pictures of hubby & I, but it really means alot to me!  It was taken 10 years ago on our first trip together to Paris.  Here we are at the Eiffel Tower.  Wish I was that slim still!!

This is a close up of the pretty floral design at the top of the cabinet.  I think if you were to look at it, you would think it was made of wood, not plastic!  So the next time you are at a yard sale or the Goodwill, be sure to give that junky old plastic stuff a second look!  You would be amazed at the possibilities!

Hope you enjoy the rest of your week!
