What's In My Cabinet

 

I am participating in Sandi's 'What's in your cabinet' party'. This is a china cabinet we've

had for many, many years. The teapot was a

gift from my MIL when my husband and I first

married, as are some of the tea cups.

This is an almost full view photo of the cabinet.

The top part once had legs that were cut off and

placed on the top of dresser drawers. Where the

china cabinet sits, there would've been a tall mirror

flagged on each side with two smaller drawers.

This actually devalues the piece in the eyes of a

antique dealer. You would think it's uniqueness

would make it more valuable, but that's not the case.

This shot lets you better view the bottom drawers.







The bottom half of the cabinet is a real hodge podge

of glassware and red tranferware dishes, and trinkets. I only use most of it for holiday dinners.

This piece will go to my daughter, along with the

matching dining room table and chairs. I have to

say I'm looking forward to that day. It takes up the

 space where I'd like to have my reading nook! I would have a perfect view of the lake from here.

Oh well, maybe some day.

So what's in your cabinets, my friends?

Any treasures?
