Another New (but) Old Cabinet

Filed Under: Home Decor Tagged With: antique, antique cabinet, decor, diy home, gathered style, home, home decor, home decorating, house and home, library cabinet, rustic, thrifted, vintage, vintage style



I moved this cabinet from the garage into the house this week. This was the last cabinet in the garage that I told Trav I was not willing to part with.

If you follow me on Instagram, you might remember when I shared in my stories that I found this cabinet at a thrift store.I went to the thrift store thinking it was going to be a thrift store price. Nope, it sure was not. But, I got it anyway, and here we are

I love how it evens out the room perfectly, with the secretary desk that I have on the other side.

I wish I knew more of it’s history and where it came from. I feel like cabinets always tell a story, even if I don’t know the story, I make one up in my head, ha!

I filled it up with thrift store finds that I love and love to stare at!

It does block the last door on the bottom of my larger cabinet, but I can get to the space through the door beside it, so it’s not a big deal. It’s worth it for me to have a spot for this cabinet! Now to find a cute curtain to add to this window.

I love it in this space and I’m so glad that I could fit it into our house!

It has a skeleton key and beautiful, antique, wavy glass! I wish you could see the wave of the glass more in the photos, it’s so beautiful!

I love the lighting in this space, even at night. It makes up for not having a Christmas tree all year round. The wood ceilings make it so cozy!

    I Love this cabinet, actually, I Love the entire room. The shelves with crocks, the file cabinets, the radio and the lamp next to it, and the wonderful book shelves. It looks, to me anyway, like a piece of Heaven!!! Thank you for sharing. I must check out your instagram page, to see more.

I found this old coffee grinder in an online aucti I found this old coffee grinder in an online auction, and I didn’t pay only $2 for it. I’m pretty sure it was one of those things where I was like, “Trav, this is going to be my birthday present” …it was months before my birthday so he forgets and still gets me something…of course I didn’t do that on purpose. 😁 I don’t buy pricey things like this often but it was something that I had been wanting for a while and they can go for $400-$500 online 🤪Lots of you ask if we use it, the answer is, I want to, but I just keep forgetting bc Trav is the one that drinks coffee and I don’t want to remind him that we have it or I might not get a birthday present this year.🤔And, I honestly don’t remember how much I paid for it but it was in the $200s …but it seems I really got it for Trav bc I don’t drink coffee🤔, but don’t tell Trav. #antiquecoffeegrinder #coffeegrinder #kitchendecor #kitchenremodel

Trav made this mantle out of a bed side rail 🤩 Trav once said we have too much stuff in the garage…but I found our mantle in the stuff 🤔…if we didn’t have stuff, we wouldn’t have this mantle😁 #mantle #mantledecor #brickfireplace #woodceiling #antiquepainting

I thought I would paint the swan …but, nope, not I thought I would paint the swan …but, nope, not after seeing it in here 🤩Oh, and the lights are back in stock and listed in my profile. 🏃‍♀️ (they are pendants but we pulled the cord through to make them flush, I love them!!) #swan #laundry #laundryroom #vanity #farmhousesink
Thanks for reminding me that I have stuff in the g Thanks for reminding me that I have stuff in the garage 😁 We covered our TV with art stuff from the garage and metal pipes and, it worked 🙌🏼😁 (see stories) I can still see the tv from the side but when we get the new wall bracket for it, that should help bc we can push it back more. It’s a good temp fix to have some cool art instead of a black box! Oh, and who remembers when I stripped this dresser? #tvart #brickfloor #oldpainting
