China cabinet made into a built-in living room wall (question)

I recently saw an upcycle project that turned a china cabinet into a living room built-in cabinet. I believe it was a 3 piece china cabinet with lower doors and upper shelves, and the middle piece was taller. But a straight top cabinet project would work too. I am looking for the instructions and the picture of the finished project in the living room. I thought I saved it but I can't find it. Has anyone seen it? Please post the link.

I don't have the answer, but wanted to do the same thing so I wanted to be able to follow the question.

The only info I found was Pinterest.

I do know that you have to extend the baseboard from the walls all the way around the cabinet.

I realized that after I posted the link. I was following Hope's suggestion, but it's not remotely a built-In. I know...I'm always amazed how some bloggers think the internet is their own private, insulated stage.

Thank you all for trying to find it for me. I asked my friend to send me a picture so I could post it for ideas, but she is busy with 3 little ones and they are also getting ready to move. We will attempt to pick it up tomorrow, and it will go on the top of the car, if we can lift it. The built in I saw had 3 pieces, with the middle one taller and I believe it had the arch. I think that can be removed. If not I can just use a saw. I honestly don't remember what her cabinet looks like, I never paid too much attention when I visited.
