I have in all my years never owned a china cabinet. I always expected to have one. It wasn't a priority and I wasn't in a hurry to get one. I always felt like it was one of those things I wanted to buy only once. The past 6 years I've really been stepping up my search. I knew what I wanted and I knew what I DIDN'T want to pay for one. The past year I was starting to let that feeling of hopelessness enter. But low and behold, a few days ago as I was leaving a vintage shop-- right by the door was my dream cabinet! We brought it home yesterday and today I anchored it to the wall, cleaned it up and selected things to put in it. I left the sliding glass doors off to take the picture and avoid the reflection. I'm so happy with this little Swedish cabinet and I'm even happier I didn't have to pay an arm and a leg! I let hubby ceremoniously hand the cashier the credit card, he's been wanting to buy me something to commemorate our anniversary in less than a week.
This is there perfect anniversary gift, Evie! Aren't we lucky to have husbands who totally get the kind of things that make us happy? Who the heck needs jewelry?
