Charlee, I painted one of my cabinets bright red because it's the first one I got and I wanted it in my Mickey Mouse room. It houses a Sewmor machine and looks really cute in with all my MM stuff. I painted an old straight back chair all black put a red cushion on the seat and MM decals on the back of the chair. So, I'd say feel free to get creative and do what you need to do to your cabinet. That's part of the fun.
