  Step 1

  So this is what i started with...
  wait till you see the inside...

• 

  Step 2

  So first, i got out the sand paper and gave it a quick sand, and then i got the duster and cloth with some all purpose cleaner, and went to town!

  ( this pic is after i did all that)

• 

  Step 3

  Next, i waited for the all purpose or any wetness to dry, and started on the base coat, here's where all the well-needed patience comes in, unlucky for me, i have none. I did 2 coats of base, with about 30 mins in between, i painted shelves too, because i am painting those as well.

  P.S - Make sure you use newspaper or something to keep paint from going everywhere

• 

  Step 4

  If your a gifted painter ( unlike me) then this'll be easy peasy, but i took about 2 hours for this part..
  first i took a fuschia and mixed it with lots of white, i did 3 coats cuz it's acrylic (i know you should'nt paint with acrylic but what the hey), Then i outlined the frame in a darker colour.

• 

  Step 5

  The top of my cupboard was falling off, so i re-attached that in the mean-time with some nails and a hammer. Anyways, once the paint has dried, and your all relaxed, you can start painting the cherry blossoms. Im a first-time painter so they aren't perfect, lol.

  I just went along with the pic in my head, but you can go on the net and find some that you like..

• Step 6

  And voila, your done!
  I use mine to store my sewing machine and kit in.

  Hope you like...

I tried to do something similar with my jewelry box, but failed miserably. I think I'll try again, your version looks amazing!
