— October 1, 2013 — Art & Design
Getting new furnishings for your home can be a fun way to add personalized touches to your decor, and these quirky cupboard designs are offering up some humorous ways to keep your items nicely tucked away.

Cabinets and cupboards often provide functional places for homeowners to store their books, knick knacks or simply anything that needs to be conveniently stored away. And while most cupboards feature very simple geometric frameworks, these quirky designs are offering much more eccentric and over-the-top options that adventurous people will surely love. From colorful cabinet designs that resemble musical accordions to those that are made to look like car doors, these quirky cupboard designs will definitely add a unique whimsical touch to any home.
