Glossy White Bamboo Accented Cabinet

Ok, first things first...earlier this week, I showed you this table and asked you to guess the finish I ended up with. If you guessed gray, you were right on the money! This is the way I finished it because for some reason, I wasn't diggin' the white that day.

But on to better things. This cabinet was brought to me in yellowy, dirty condition.

I made it glossy white after priming with oil based primer. I thought Newburg Green (BM) would be a fun surprise inside.

I love this piece and what you did with it. The bamboo styling was very popular "back when" -- but it is classic and never goes out of style. This little piece has a lot of possibilities -- love it!

Gorgeous! I love the interior/exterior contrast. Just fabulous color choices. And I'm a sucker for faux bamboo. Great job with this piece.

I love the dark color inside! it's funny, cause here in hawaii, these bamboo tables are a dime a dozen, but no one paints them in fun colors! they all stay in their blonde state.

I love it in white, especially with the color inside. It's really pretty!

Hi! I just enjoyed a few quiet minutes going through your projects. I love several of them. Seems as though you and think alike sometimes... check out my most recent post. It reminds me of your high gloss white bamboo small table! Thanks for inspiration.
