Some of us have one solid set of China that we’ve been in love with since our wedding day. So, it’s only natural that you’d want to store it away for safekeeping, yet show it off during your casual dinner days. Not to mention, this China cabinet, has a super bold style, complimented by the simple, white dishes.

And other times, the right cabinet can be used to infuse and transform the room. Take this cabinet for example, stuffed with decor that matches the space, the entire dining area has a sense of bright vivaciousness. Every piece inside matches the ethos of the room.

Sometimes having an extra piece of furniture, like a China cabinet, is really just to hide away your extra pieces. From mugs to antiques you’ve collected along the way, it’s such a special way to display and organized your favorites. It also makes it easier to get to them whenever the time comes to use them!

4. Calling the Bartender!

If you entertain a lot, a simple bar cart may not do the trick. Instead, use that old hutch your mom passed down to you and turn it into ‘the bar’ area of your home. It’ll be a perfect way to entertain all of your family and friends during the holidays without becoming a mess. Instead, it’s quite a classy way to do the job.

5. A Miniature Closet.

6. Books & Stuff.

The books can fit inside too. Instead of a classic bookshelf, bring in a piece with more personality to load all of your entertainment needs … but not in terms of dining, but actually reading, gaming and media entertainment.

7. Casual Necessities.

If you just don’t have the space in your kitchen to hold your plates and dining essentials, it’s okay to use your cabinet to tuck away your casual, everyday necessities. It’s just done in a much more stylish way then stacking them inside your kitchen pantries.

8. Hidden Hobbies.

9. Party Time!
