WoW! Wallpaper Wainscoting!

Coach and I recently purchased this country-style cupboard at auction for...wait for it...$10!!! It was pretty grimy and the front doors were missing, but I just fell in love with the detail in the top trim and base.The color was a faded and chipped greenish-mustardy yellow with some sort of stenciling on it. So not country pretty, so time for a makeover. First step was to clean it, second to prime it, third was to find some wainscoting to define the back wall. Enter Allen & Roth paintable wallpaper from Lowes. Please click the link below for the rest of the story...
This is the completed cabinet filled with my blue and white dishes and pottery.
This was the cupboard before. Grimy, chipped finishes and missing doors. But the overall structure was strong and I just love the detail.
Here is the cupboard almost completed. The wainscoting is in place and everything has been painted Snowfall White. Now comes the good part- decorating! Stay tuned...

    Very nice! I actually redid my kitchen cabinets with the wainscoting wallpaper. If you'd like to check it out I posted it on here. You can probably find it by searching my name.
