Memorial Day Project

I know. It doesn't look like much now. And it hasn't looked like much for the nearly year that I've been storing it in my craft room. I bought it at an antique store in Downtown Phoenix. It's REALLY heavy and all cracked. When you flake off the paint, you can see at least three layers of different color paint: the brown, a cream and a PINK!?! Can you imagine a pink window?My idea...is not a new one. Afterall, I have NOT A SINGLE origional idea.

I first saw it at Sandi Barbera's house when I was doing a shoot for Sonoran Living Live. She was teaching us how to refinish our cabinets to look like those in Pottery Barn magazines.

Since then, I've seen it in a few boutiques, blogs and home decor stores. So, I'm going to give it a whirl.

I'm going to keep the hardware on it. I just love how it makes it look really old!

Wish me luck!!!
