Kitchen Cabinet Customized

I have always liked the look of glass front cabinets.  It is exciting to be able to display pretty dishes, but be able to hide the clutter of everyday living in the other cupboards.  This glass front cupboard is builder grade.  Here is what I did to add oomph and a bit of sophistication.

Before                              
                       
After
Using double stick scotch tape and hot glue I covered the back of the cabinet with poster size red textured artist paper.  For less than $5.00 and about an hour of time, I have a beautiful back drop for my dishes.

    I love the idea of using decorative papers rather than paint. I will definitely be using this in our home. I have a corner hutch that we inherited from my husband's grandmother and I don't want to paint it but this will really help lighten up the inside of it. Thanks for sharing. I just love your black formal living room too! (from October 11th) So glad I found your blog.
