I was given 6 old metal folding chairs. They are all rusty and discolored, some have plastic seats. How do I refinish them the right way?
Wow! That's a nice piece.... Personally, I'd extend the top of it by adding a bigger board so it can act as a table when you want it to... then I'd remove the doors so the inside is easy to get to for storage. If that is a couple of drawers on the bottom, I'd leave them in for enclosed storage. It's such a beautiful piece, tho'... Perhaps it would be better to only extend the top and leave the rest as it is.
Fit a worktop that fits over the existing top, and you are nealy there.
You could add a butcher block top to it and a wooden towel bar on the sides.
