The Rockwell Vintage Record Cabinet - Before & After
Before AfterThis is a vintage record cabinet we picked up and refinished in our classic black. It has four vertical cubbies and one horizontal cubby. This piece would work great in a craft room to store and organize various items. It would also sit beautifully next to a piano to store sheet music.
What an adorable piece. I love the black. I had no idea that that is what they were used for. Love how you displayed it with you wreath and candles holders with apples, beautiful!
Thanks Melanie for adding your fabulous seascape painting to the Coastal Blog Posts Linkup!!!! What a great find, an antique really -gorgeous frame, I agree!!!
what a great little cabinet! love it in black! it would be perfect as an end table in a dr's office... a stylish dr's office that is! better come join my party! :)
That is a fun piece! I could see my husband putting that to good use in his home office. Looks great in black, Melanie! Hope you're having a good week.
Melanie- We actually have two of these- There were 3 of them. My hubby's grandmother was a concert pianist and so she had lots of MUSIC things in her house. I gave one to each daughter. I put little "hooks" on the front of it above the shelves and shirred some heavy velvet fabric on as "curtains". It covers the mess...and...surprise...we actually use ours for MUSIC! The third one (and the prettiest) was given to her favorite piano student. Hugs-Diana
i'm in love with this piece! I've never seen one like it, so gonna have to "borrow" this one to make as I have quite a record collection that needs to be displayed. Thanks for sharing!
A great looking piece now that it's painted black, Melanie. It would be perfect beside a couch, chair, or bed - to store all those decorating mags we gals like to look at. ;)
Have a great weekend!

A great makeover of that record table. I could use it for its original purpose. I have several of the old vinyl records. Large and small. I need this to put them in.
We are Mike and Melanie Gardner and we find old furniture to repair, redesign and paint. Mike has a background in construction and finish work. Melanie has an interest in finding unique furniture pieces to refinish and create something almost brand new. Thank you for visiting our site!

Gorgeous cabinet! I have been looking for a unique piece to store my records. If its still available, how much?
Absolutely LOVE this! You know, my mom has one of these sitting in her garage, that used to belong to my grandmother. I may have to beg it off of her.

What a great piece. I don't think I have ever ran across one of these. I love it, great for lots of things besides records. Happy vtt!
Great makeover! I could use one of those in my craft room. I'll be looking for record tables when I'm at the flea now. Thanks for sharing.
It looks great in the black! I like how you put books in the record slots.
