Upcycle Repurpose Restyle Plain Bookshelf to China Cabinet
Hi! Welcome to LilacsNDreams! I have something to share I had seen a long time ago. I am sharing it now because it still applies to things that creators are still doing today. The post comes from Crafty Nest and she did this October 16, 2012. An old bookshelf that had been moved from room to room. Just couldn't decide on a place to use it, hang it, but didn’t really want to get rid of it. At the same time she was looking for a china cabinet to put in a spot she had for that. See below the pictures of before, after, and some instructions with it. If you wish to see it better on her site please visit her there, and ask her questions you may have too.

This is the after picture showing the formation from the bookshelf to the china stand
Pictures below here are visuals to the instructions she shared for this process.
Is this not lovely what she did, and like WOW! One of them moments of “who would have guessed” right? Beautiful!
I hope you enjoyed this DIY transformation of this bookshelf that’s been shared. Remember, you can see this fully at Crafty Nest , and it’s from her October 12, 2012 posting. I hope that this will help you, and again inspire you with pieces you have, or maybe some things to look for to work with. Upcycle, Repurpose, Recycle, Restyle, and Reimagine are some of the trends still for today.
Thanks so much for sharing your time with LilacsNDreams, and hope to see you visit again soon. Take care till the next time. . . . .
