SK's Field of Dreams

I have the most amazing clients. Heidi is the creator and owner of Pine Lodge Labradoodles and finds wonderful treasures for very little money. I'm not sure how she is always at the right place at the right time, all the time.
She finds great deals and they land at my door, waiting their turn for a fresh lease on life.
This big abused lady was purchased for $30.00
After sanding and cleaning, I paint the entire cabinet inside and out with cream chalk paint. I sand between three coats of paint.
I antique the outside cream paint with the rusting iron paint in corners and along crevices. As the outside of the cabinet is curing I start the interior.
As the interior is drying I wax the entire exterior of the cabinet with a clear paste wax. After the wax had dried, I buff for an old world glow.
When the interior is dry, I antique all the paper with a chocolate glaze and then wipe off. This gives me the appearance of age I love.
Enjoyed the project?
