Put down that paint brush! You don’t have to paint that family heirloom to update a china cabinet. Here’s a China Cabinet Makeover without Painting by using wrapping paper to add color and pattern.

Sunday dinners at my Mema’s house looked like this…

Piping hot macaroni served in a red pyrex dish.

Mandarin orange creamsicle pie.

And fried chicken. Real homemade, not from Publix fried chicken.

All of that goodness was surrounded by this dining room set.

The gift of this furniture came with the promise not to paint one piece. That is totally fine with me because I love the warm wood tones.

So for this china cabinet makeover I had to ditch the paintbrush and grab the paper. Which was a wee bit of a problem with this $100 Room Challenge since the paper I just had to have was pricey.

But oh how I love the color and pattern of this Rifle Paper Co. Birch Wrapping Paper. The bright punch of the coral flowers fit perfectly with my dining room makeover plan.

Using paper as a china cabinet makeover is as simple as measuring the space twice, cutting out the paper, and using double sided tape to attach it to the back wall of the cabinet.

Adding the paper was the easy part of the china cabinet makeover.

The hardest part for me was decided how to style the china cabinet. It’s usually filled the the brim with our wedding china and crystal.

This time I decided to go simple with a few accessories.

Simple white dishes and white milk glass container overflowing with flowers create a fantastic focal point.

Don’t you just love that color?
