From TV Stand to Outdoor Sideboard

I needed an outdoor cabinet for my summer entertaining and found the perfect thrift store TV stand to makeover. It needed some new door panels and a serious cleaning but a little paint and bling and it was ready to go.
I recently got a HomeRight Finish Max paint sprayer and I was able to paint this in about 20 minutes. I will never paint with a brush again!

Grabbed some nailhead trim on Amazon and added some dazzle to the drawers and around the top. As you can see the cabinet wasn't in the best shape but it came together beautifully. The Outdoor Living paints from DecoArt are perfect for this kind of project.

    Is the paint good for outdoors in the weather? or, on a covered patio where it is out of the direct weather? I don't have a cover so mine would definitely be rained on! Thank you.

    Love this project! Did you seal the buffet after painting?

      I'm lucky to live in southern, CA so the weather is perfect most of the time.
