Andy’s Favorite Things – Beauty Edition

Andy’s Favorite Things – Beauty Edition

Hi there and happy Fallidays! I’m delighted to present my very first edition of Andy’s Favorite Things. Of course, I’m inspired by an iconic celebrity who presents an annual list of her favorite things.

The hubs and I purchased this old oak china cabinet years ago, even before we really had anything to place on its shelves. The cabinet, along with a table and chairs was one of our first major purchases ever. It’s moved around with us and graced our dining room in several homes. When my Mom and Dad gave us their treasured Blue Danube china, it felt like my cabinet was finally happy! But through the years, decor trends have changed, and the old cabinet began to feel tired and dated. Because it held so many memories, we decided to give it a facelift! Read on to see how we updated the old girl.
