Using a chalk paint which you can make your own, indoor flat paint with a cup of flour mix well. It's nice and thick and sands well. And you don't need to use expensive glaze. You can pick up some unique knobs at any habitat store, for next to nothing or if you live in the states Good Will will have some great stuff.

I make these alot. I also have used corks for handles hope this helps

Chalk paint would work best on the piece. I recently did a project with gray and distressed it. You can check out my tips here http://beautyforasheshome.com/thrift-store-table-flip-chalk-paint/
