An early Sunday morning jaunt resulted in this vintage buffet rescue.
The bones on this guy were in great condition, just years of wear showing on the outside.
I painted the body in French Linen and aged it with a clear and dark wax combo. After cleaning up the top {which was covered in scratches}, I gave it a fresh coat of stain {I custom mix my stain to get the desired color}. The wood grain is just stunning now that you an actually see it! And with three coats of poly, it's ready for years of use!
The original hardware was throwing me for a loop and I couldn't decide if I should change it out or not. But once I saw it all complete I really really like how the brass pops off the grey.
