Our find

I am not sure what to call her...but I know I will fix her up and give her a nice comfy spot in our new home.


We have a large wall in our kitchen and I was looking for a piece for the area that would also give us a little extra storage.  I was also looking for something that I could take the time and refinish.  Salvation army is around the corner and since it seems I am dropping stuff off there several times a week lately I decided to stop in and see what they had.
I was drawn to her right away but I also had my doubts.  First she is painted black and the handles that have been attached don't seem to fit the piece.  She is also missing her bottom doors, but I don't seem to mind. I have baskets that might work or hubby can make new doors (wait till I tell him that). I do like that she has a holder for wine glasses attached in one of the areas.
I brought hubby over to see and we decided to look around a little more and if she was still there this weekend we would get her.

Needless to say she became ours for a mere $56.00 and sitting in the middle of the living room until Mike moves.  I don't know what she is going to look like since it will depend on colors we choose for the kitchen.  I figure it will end up either being painted, glazed and distressed a subtle color OR we can make it a statement piece with a bold color.  Any and all ideas are always welcome.  Stay tuned.
