Curio Cabinet Makeover

I bought this at a thrift store for $50 about 5 years ago.

I painted the exterior a creamy color and the interior back wall a pale grey-blue.  

I love the blue but I'm slowly swapping pale colors for darker, richer ones.

Here are some of my treasures that were in the cabinet.

I took everything out and cleaned each piece.  

The coral is delicate, so I ran it under water, got all the dust out, and let it air dry.

It came out pretty great.  

I love it :)
