Make a Plain Cabinet into a Pie Safe!
I adore pie safes. The look, the romance of bygone times, the smell of freshly baked pie in my mom's kitchen... mmmmmm delightful!
I've wanted a pie safe forever, but they don't ever seem to turn up for sale around here. Sigh. What to do. A few weeks ago, I got an email from D. Lawless Hardware offering me whatever I wanted from their stock to build something cool with. When I saw the pie safe tin on their site I was so excited!!! I picked out the old fashioned wheat sheaf pattern and got 4 of them.
I knew I wanted to create a pie safe, but I didn't know which cabinet to pick. Then my eye settled on the unfinished pantry cabinet in my kitchen. I've been searching for a way to dress up the plain jane door I built for it. It just didn't do much for the cabinet and it certainly wasn't as charming as the shutter doors that I used on the top half.
