When Crafty, Scrappy, Happy moved into her house, it had a fireplace, but no mantle. She took an old cabinet and created a beautiful mantle!!! Looking at this photo, would you have guessed that? Not me! This is also a great idea for people who don't have a fireplace, but want the look of one. (You've got to check out some of the other projects in this blog. Plan an few minutes to look around.)
Head over to Choose To Thrive where you can learn how to make picture frame cabinets. Like Nike, you can either leave them blank or put pictures or scrapbook goodness in them. What a fun way to change up your kitchen.
There are so many cool things to do with chalkboard paint and here is another new one! Creatively Living Outside The Box painted the back of her cabinets with chalkboard paint(which she actually took off the doors). The contrast of white and black looks stunning. Plus, you can write on or decorate the back of cabinets. .
