I did a scale model of the lounge/dining area of the Cabin and the furniture that I have purchased and I have decided to review the layout of the furniture.
So I decided that the long 1.5 m side table that I had refurbished is too long and decided to search for something different. I found a Display cabinet on Gumtree (this is a "Free Local Classifieds Ads from all over Australia, Buy and Sell in your local area") On the ad it was called a Buffet. Besides, being a great price, as many others that looked decent were well over $100, this was only $30, this 'buffet' was a much better size. Yippee! The width of the buffet is 106cm with a depth of 42cm.
I am going to most likely paint the cabinet white with chalk paint and use it as a TV cabinet, I have a small 24" HD TV.
My sister suggested I keep the wood original as I do have a couple of older pieces in a very dark wood. PS: I am not very good at guessing what kind of wood is used. I will also change the handles to make it more of the "Hampton look" style. ( I wonder what others think??)
The metal shelving I will use in the kitchen of the cabin.
It was easy to remove the metal shelving, which was a blessing for transporting the whole unit in my sister's SUV. It was very heavy.
Now it is taking up space in my living room (LOL until I can organize to transport it down the coast.
