So much better. Love the distressed finish.
ReplyDeleteI love cabinets that have see through glass because then you can show of what you own. Why have a cabinet that is closed without windows in it? If you have that then you can never show off the cool stuff you own to to other people. I guess you could open the cabinet but the point is that they see your cool stuff without you having to open it.
