Industrial Apothecary Cart

After my dad found a curbside china cabinet, we rescued and restyled the hutch into a beautiful barrister-style bookcase. Although the buffet portion wasn't much to look at, I knew it also had huge potential. And I had a vision of transforming it into an industrial apothecary cart.
I reached out to the amazing Amy at Her Tool Belt to help draw plans to make my vision a reality.
The buffet was missing a top, which was fine since I wanted something a little more rustic anyway. After removing the doors and drawers, we built new doors with faux apothecary-style panels.
Creating a finish resembling metal was my favorite part of this project. I layered several glazes on top of the base color and the result was a steel/zinc look. You can read all the details on my blog.
Enjoyed the project?
