Madleon's Creative China Cupboard! Re-purpose A Wooden Jelwery Box

 Madelon shares with us today a beautiful jewlery box she found and has re-purposed into the perfect and very creative China Cupboard.

"This jewelry box reminded me that you don't have to just paint your old wooden jewelry box one color. Pick a theme-this was done in folk art style (but not by me)"

This would fit easily into your doll house and looks very springlike and fun!

This is the perfect doll sized cabinet and may even work in doll's bed room or bathroom to hold clothing or towels too!
Thank you Madelon for sharing with us this wonderful fun find today.
