My First Blog

 
 
Good morning and welcome to my first blog.
 
 
I'm just a little bit nervous about this after seeing
so many amazing blogs.
 
 
I love County Cottage Decor and anything White.
 
 
 I will be posting photos of vignettes
in my home.
 
I love rearranging things with the seasons,
but it all comes back to
white.
 
I have a small corner cupboard in my living room
which was made several years ago
by a local cabinetmaker.
 
Of Course it is White.
 
When I managed an Antique/Consignment shop
a few years ago.
I decided to use it in the shop.
 
It made a beautiful display piece for
Baby things new and old.
 
Unfortunately we had a fire and my
beautiful cabinet was damaged.
 
The contents were totally lost.
 
After many months I decided it was time to revive it
and get it back into my living room.

My husband sanded it down to the bare wood
and I painted it white,
 dry brushing the inside for a more shabby look.
