Sure is starting to feel like springtime here in friendly Manitoba! At this time on our farm, we’re half way through calving season— and although an extra busy and very cute time of year— our yard is a mess which has me thinking about the mountains of work coming for me after thaw! However, the approaching of spring also has me thinking about fresh decor, and maybe even finding some time to paint a room! Transforming this 1940’s china cabinet has most certainly put me in the mood!

Before & After
Coastal Farmhouse Cupboard
Can you believe I picked-up this 1940’s china cabinet way back in 2017?! And I just got to flipping it now in 2023, 6 years later! Where DOES time go?! My boys have given me orders to clean up my furniture stash in our shop— so to keep the peace, that is what I’ll do! A girl has to have some control right?!

For YOU
Are you a coastal farmhouse style fan?! This vintage 1940’s china cabinet has been transformed to give you that exact feel! Comforting and serene, with exposed wood elements and timeworn farmhouse patina. Accented with wickers, greeneries and whites creates a mood of peace and tranquility. Option to remove the door for a sweet open concept. Would make for a lovely bathroom linen cabinet, a dining-room white dinnerware display, a sitting-room book shelf, an entry-way statement, and more! A pleasing touch of cozy charm for that perfect little nook or space in your home or cottage.

Photos from My Workshop
I do try to take photos while flipping my pieces! I do, I swear I do! I however tend to get very caught up in the moment, and don’t always think to! Here’s a few I managed to capture with this flip!
Come Take a Closer Look!
I ain’t no videographer I tell ya! I am however determined to try my very best to share a closer look with YOU. Below you’ll find my best; albeit amateur effort at trying to capture this piece in video format (taken out in my workshop where I do it all- prep, transform, picture and vid).
For my Manitoba followers, perhaps you might fancy slipping out to our farm for the closest look- please do get in touch!
