This is for a beautiful upcycled* Peaceful Beach Storage Cabinet.   It was originally painted a cream color with little birdhouses painted all over it as you can see in the photos... I just love a good before & after photo!  Yes, it definitely was a charming design with all of the cute little birdhouses, but it was a bit outdated and needed a fresh, new look.   This new design was inspired by the ocean and sand at the Peaceful Beach... now, the entire cabinet looks like the beach!  The bottom third is painted like sand including several real shells, sea glass pieces, and even a real starfish!  The middle third is painted like the ocean with lovely teal and shimmery silver waves.  The very top is a calming sky blue color.  That same blue color is also painted on the back and on the inside.  There's a vibrant surprise pop of orange inside the cabinet along the shelves and on the entire inside of the door.  Talk about a burst of energy every time you open it!
 
The cabinet measures almost 13-1/2" tall by about 9" wide and is about 3" deep.  The shelves measure about 7-1/2" across by about 2-1/4" deep.  The top shelf is about 2-3/4" tall.  The second and bottom shelf are both about 3-3/4" tall.  There is a magnet to latch the door.  It is a very tight fitting door.  There are 2 triangle shaped loops on the back so that you can hang it on the wall.  Or you can also choose to set it on top of a table or dresser.  
 
How cute would this look in your beach themed bathroom to hold little toiletries or trinkets?  You could even put your collectibles on display inside...like seashells you find at the beach, some pretty jewelry, miniatures, or anything that that makes you happy!
 
Please keep in mind that this is a hand-painted item and is definitely one-of-a-kind so no one else will have one like it!  
The paint used was acrylic paint and everything was varnished to give it a little shine.  Be sure to read the Cleaning & Care Instructions so that you can enjoy it for many years!
 
When you surround yourself with things in your home that bring you joy, it's easy to feel more joyful everyday!
 
 
* What exactly does "Upcycled" mean?
 
UpcycleThat.com defines "upcycling" as : “The act of taking something no longer in use and giving it a second life and new function. In doing so, the finished product often becomes more practical, valuable and beautiful than what it previously was.”  Check out their website for some great ideas!
