In the Pink

I was so excited to purchase this cute little vintage china cabinet from EBTH.com, but once in the dining room it just felt like it was begging for a little special attention. Franklin Debonair and his new high gloss green table was making the china cabinet look like a shrinking violet.

Pretty, right? But when it sets across the room from this (below), it looks like a wallflower.

What's a girl to do? What I often do - add a splash of paint!

First, degauss, then sand.

Wipe with a tack cloth and prime.

Then the fun begins! I used Sherwin Williams gloss paint that I had on hand from another project. A little brighter than I wanted, but it was available :)

So much better, right?

What do you think?
