Thanks everyone for the comments on my decision between the white chippy weathered wood border or the antique beadboard border. I really like the white chippy one the best…my sister was the one that suggested the antique beadboard border because she thought the white was too much. I had thought about going with no border, but we have painted since that old border was put up 17 years ago and the old paint color is underneath there. Which means that I would have to repaint not only the living room and dining room, but also the stairway and the hallway upstairs…and I’m not really wanting to paint all of that right now, because I still like the color it is. I don’t have enough of the paint left to even paint where just the border is. So, I’m thinking I will be order my new border soon.
Now to the title of my post….here is my dream cupboard.
Mr D & I went to one of my favorite country shops a few weeks ago and I found this cupboard on sale. I would love to have this in our dining room. We took a photo and got the measurements to see if it would fit in there. This piece does not stick out too far from the wall…so I was hoping that it would fit, but it won’t as our dining room is just too narrow for any cupboard at all. I’m trying to figure out if I did some rearranging in our living room…if it could go in there since these two rooms are open to each other and I’m just not sure if that is going to work either. Bummer!!!…I can just see this piece filled with prim farmhouse pieces and white pitchers.
Until next time….. blessings, Cindy

Love the cupboard Cindy…we have a red one very similar…the only real difference is that instead of the top shelf we have a row for standing up plates.
We want it in our dining room as well but think it’s too narrow.
These huge pieces sure do get us in trouble don’t they…
Hope you get it!
